People voted for Trump. He CAN do wrong to some people, but in the long term, his choices will be best. That is how he became a billionaire. We have a 20 trillion dollar debt. If we don't stop with all the programs and spending, the Chinese will own America. Start learning that language.
This is the same type of self-reinforcing confirmation bias as the old trope, “God wouldn’t give me anything I can’t handle”. Doesn’t make it true, just creates false confidence in the unknowable. Makes me think of the Dark Ages.
IMO, there is a small percentage of zealotry who would promote such an idea, and they prop up the ratings.
Never heard that except in Rosie's Corner but the reasoning involved - God made him pres - God can do no wrong, therefore he can do no wrong - seems pretty gratuitous. After all he is human! Maybe his opponents will have him "investigated" and bring indictments for " collusion" with "foreign powers".
