    Second paragraph says he has less support overall. I would bet that 51% includes a lot of people who dont know shit. Like my boss for instance, not a single second of cognitive dissonance when I showed him the cat eating lady that splurged racism all over the country was actually American. They’re fucken dumb. They’d support anyone who says big daddy will make all the hard problems go away. They’re children.

      It will last right up until Trumps dumbass policies have them struggling to afford their basic necessities because he kicked off the second great depression, and people are dying in the streets because our healthcare system has collapsed under the load from all the unvaccinated people.

      I would say I hope that leads to a moment of self reflection, but I’m not that hopeful. They’ll just blame it all on Trump and not the terrible Republican policies they’ve been supporting for decades.

        That won’t stop it. It’ll always be someone else’s fault. Republicans have been screwing over their constituents for many decades by making them afraid of immigrants, liberals, etc.

        It will even last past that, because the elites will give them someone to blame for all the problems caused by qons and their stupid ideas about how to run things.

        They’ll blame the Jews, POC, liberals, Teh Gheyz, immigrants…

      That’s kind of the point, no? Americans are dumb and don’t think through the repercussions of things
