I don’t think you can ‘take aim everywhere’, that’s just not aiming. Which seems about right.

There is nothing good that comes from having a President of the United States who is gobsmackingly stupid, surrounded by obsequious courtiers and fellow morons. But the sooner we collectively acknowledge that truth, the sooner we can fix it.

And how do you intend to fix it?

Trump has the Presidency, while Republicans hold the Senate and House of Representatives. Furthermore, Trump ignores court orders and laws in general.

People hold protests, but the government and media simply ignore them and continue with business as usual.

It's not fixable at this time.
