Could you point to an example of a multi party democracy that produced something as bad as trump? I'm not aware of any, but I'm not well versed.

Thatcher

literally Hitler

None of them - that weren't from the largest party.

Basically, they got the same as first past the post Trump, but had to bring along less shit parties along instead of being a political mono-culture like FPTP creates. So even at their worst, they're still better.

Weimar Germany is the most obvious one.
