It's too easy to laugh off the obviously ludicrous aspects of Donald Trump's presidency. 

The fact that someone with his emotional and intellectual qualities is in the White House however is not something to laugh about - it's serious business. We could easily be one terrorist attack away from a rogue President initiating rash military action, and seriously curtailing civil liberties and democracy in general. We cannot underestimate his ability to sway the public (and his enablers in Congress) into supporting truly disastrous policy decisions, especially in a self-proclaimed 'crisis'.

Americans cannot afford to let their guard down on this truly dangerous man.
