This man inspires the wrong people.

It's not just him. It's the whole right of the spectrum right now. Here in Canada the head of the opposition in parliament tweeted a wanted sign on two senators. One of them in Cornwall, Ontario. This is growingly a radical element of shitheads that are ruining the world for the large majority.

This man should not be in a position to inspire anyone.

One of my favorite quotes:

"The major problem—one of the major problems, for there are several—one of the many major problems with governing people is that of whom you get to do it; or rather of who manages to get people to let them do it to them. To summarize: it is a well-known fact that those people who must want to rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it. To summarize the summary: anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job."

Gotta cite it -- Douglas Adams. (Didn't have to even look it up, it's one of my favorites too)

He inspired me to never be like him.
