| December 2, 2022 1:00 AM

Let’s call a spade a spade. You can’t call yourself a “patriot” and be a Trump supporter.

Trump was and will forever be:

First president in 28 years to not serve a second term.

First president in 89 years to lose the presidency, the House and the Senate in a single term.

First president in 102 years to allow more than 120,000 Americans to die in a single virus outbreak.

First president in 129 years to lose the popular vote twice.

First president in 152 years to boycott his successors inauguration.

First president ever to fail to hit a 50% approval rating at any point during their presidency.

First president ever to accuse his predecessor of not being an American.

First president ever to be elected with the help of a foreign nation.

First president ever to be impeached twice.

First president ever to have a member of their own party vote for conviction in an impeachment trial.

First president ever to have an arrest warrant issued against him by a foreign nation.

First president ever to refuse to concede defeat.

First president ever to fail to ensure a peaceful transfer of power.

First president ever to actively incite a terrorist attack against his own.

We won’t forget some believe “god” sent us this clown.
