steve, that's the right attitude, to see the things you consider good within the whole you consider bad.

Actually, I believe there are more positive sides, like the fact that, even with senate and house + supreme court in control, Mr Trump does not appear to have absolute power like a king. I heard about the two nominees being discarded by the party. They were two people that Mr. Trump knew would have been reliable to execute his orders, almost blindly, nevertheless the party evidently believed that they were not fit, either because of lacking skills and reputation (edit: Mr. Hegseth's alleged sexual assault of years ago seems to be very improbable in reality).

.Also, you wrote that his crimes are under a carpet. More objectively, I'd say that the people has decided that his sins (the affair with the actress) can be forgiven considering the whole outlook, and he got legal presidential immunity. He's clearly not a spiritual figure, however, his rival didn't exhibit a perfect moral rectitude either.

Last, I'll tell you this. I feel safer with Mr. Trump as a president. In his almost deranged ways, this man is perhaps more suited to lead America in this global predicament. He gains more respect and fear from the global rascals. Ms. Harris would have been potentially a dangerous choice.

To end it up, I was disappointed that Mr. Trump in a post-election talk, spoke with deep resentment against Mrs. Harris. Given his big victory, he might have been magnanimous and reconciling, exhibiting higher qualities. He has been hit hard by his enemies, nevertheless a reconciliation would have been much superior to his harsh words. Not a spiritual man. Nevertheless, he may be the one needed in this global plight, wisely advised by his aides. I hope.
