Checking to see if something scrolls is way easier than looking at a design, calculating in your head if the margins look equidistant from one another thus deducing that it must be the bottom of the screen.

Who cares what Trump thinks? It's all the people he's appointing. It's like he fooled his supporters the most by saying he's anti-establishment. Who thought any damage could come from George W. Bush? But now we're reaping the whirlwind of policies that we couldn't even imagine.
