Yeah, but this is National TV and the crowd enthusiastically applauded, so it ain’t just him...

The View is on. Keith Olberman is on it. No link, sorry.
He just said that Trump has done more damage to the US than Bin Laden or ISIS...
Assuming what I am claiming is true, do you agree with him?
I don’t.
(Edit: “Trump and his family have done more damage to America than Bin Laden and ISIS combined.” Is what he believes...)
(Also, not to post and bounce, but I gotta go for now...)

1) Weakened our legal structure by his constant attacks on the Constitution.
2) Made massive, flagrant political corruption main stream.
3) Appointed a large number of rabidly anti-freedom people as Federal judges.
4) Lowered the degree of trust our international allies have in us, and lowered our standing in the world in general.
5) Caused such turmoil during his time in the political arena that far too much attention is being paid to his shenanigans and not enough is being paid to areas that are actually important.
6) Further weakened the economy by continuing to push the miserable failure of trickle-down, or voodoo, economics. He shares responsibility for this with Congress.
All of these, while less dramatic in that people are not being killed in the streets, are far more dangerous to the US as a country than anything AQ or ISIS can do.
So yes, on this, I agree with Olberman.
with the lousy leadership we have had in this country since the turn of the century, with one exception

Keith Olberman does tend to be a bit hyperbolic in his language, and yes, I agree with him that Trump has done more damage to the US than Bin Laden or ISIS or both.
Al Queda and ISIS neither one are existential threats to the US. In other words, the best they can do is kill some number of US citizens, but they cannot, by themselves, destroy the country.
Note that they CAN manufacture events wherein, with the lousy leadership we have had in this country since the turn of the century, with one exception, the US would go into convulsions and destroy ourselves, but neither Al Queda nor ISIS themselves directly can destroy this country.
Trump on the other hand has:
1) Weakened our legal structure by his constant attacks on the Constitution.
2) Made massive, flagrant political corruption main stream.
3) Appointed a large number of rabidly anti-freedom people as Federal judges.
4) Lowered the degree of trust our international allies have in us, and lowered our standing in the world in general.
5) Caused such turmoil during his time in the political arena that far too much attention is being paid to his shenanigans and not enough is being paid to areas that are actually important.
