This is the thing that most astonishes me about this timeline.
Even setting aside all the other issues - politics, ideology, constitutionality, the rule of law, integrity, whatever - Trump is so obviously a raving lunatic that I sincerely have no idea how anyone can possibly fail to see it. There’s nothing at all aubtle or obscure about it - he’s bludgeoningly obviously unhinged.
Do people actually not see that? How? Or do they see it and ignore it? Again, how?
They’re not really paying attention to him, they’re paying attention to Fox News or newsmax or whatever propaganda channel they prefer.
And, at the end of the day they’re not voting for a person, they’re voting for the big three: abortion, guns, and racism immigration. That and “sticking it to the libs”.
They bought the bamboozle. They’re in too deep and they can admit they were wrong. So they just double down.
Remember being in your early 20s and having a friend who drank a little too much or would start fights with everyone but somehow still got invited to everything?
Because he’s a really cool guy when you can have a one on one chat with them. He’s just misunderstood.
I think Trump is that friend for a portion of America.
“The best defense against an unhinged world is a good party with an unhinged leader.”
- Republicans, probably.
Wife beaters? Listen, I’ll welcome most anyone with open arms, but I draw the line at police officers.
this is literally the kind of writing you would find scribbled over the walls of a serial killer’s basement. the fact that a third of your country looks at that and thinks “yeah that’s my guy” is really indicative of your mental health crisis.
that and having 2 mass shootings a day.
Trump is mentally ill. The United States is on a very dangerous place because of the Republican Party’s spineless membership. They wanted to win and any cost and now threaten every American’s health, wealth, and quite likely any moral highground that it had worldwide.
Yes, he is definitely a psychopath.
What makes it all the worse, unfortunately, is the fact that turbo-capitalism is all about these character trades: limitless greed and selfishness are the name of the game here, rather than empathy and kindness.
That’s why there are so many obvious psychopaths in high positions. If it’s all about profits without consideration for anything else, these people are the perfect match.
…this is real?
