So weird how people are convinced that someone whose signature move is to go back on his word to re-negotiate deals, and who viciously turns on anyone the moment they cease to be useful to him, has *their* back.

Dude’s been in office nearly four years and hasn’t figured out that the job *isn’t about him*. Or that, you know, it has actual *responsibilities*. Even after he failed his four-year performance review.

Election maps typically show land. But land doesn’t vote. People vote. Whether they’re spread out over a lot of land or concentrated in a city.
