Trump is a burgeoning despot.
To hear that Key has said this is doubly disturbing, it shows that he is the money-grubber I always thought he was but more so that he does not have the wherewithal to realize that to support Trump is to show what a low-life you are to any discerning observer.
I always knew that Key was a shocker but to hear this is confirmation of all that I despise about him and more.
What I've always said about Key is that he has "a lean and hungry look". "Teflon John"
That's it exactly - teflon, just as Luxon is; very very smooth & amiable. Until, no doubt their comfortable lifestyle is threatened. You have to wonder whether they're even aware of anything at all outside their own lives & that of their circle of friends & relatives.
Perhaps if you ignore all news reports contrary to the way in which you see the world, then it might be possible to ignore the possible repercussions in the future for other people - including your own descendants.
Which is the bit I don't get...
I don't think I'm the only person who is fearful for all Americans (& others) should Trump become president.

No one else exists - or matters.
