Looking for some other info, I saw this as the .sig on a wingnut’s post:

“Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other”.~John Adams 1798

Now, I’ve considered looking it up to see if it’s even a true quote but lets suppose it is because that’s a perfect explanation for Trumpism: that the system was designed presuming only decent people would run it and that’s why the GOP has been so successful is ratfucking the nation since 1980.
