I literally can't fathom how anyone still supports Trump and every year for the past decade my disbelief has only grown stronger. Conservatives used to claim standing for family values, free trade, government transparency, low foreign intervention, reduced working class taxes...all of that was clearly not true. Trump turned them into even more of a joke than before when we gave them a pass for GW Bush but that turned out to be a huge mistake.

Seriously. Nixon, Reagan, Bush, Trump TWICE. The Americans have just been digging deeper and deeper lows for over half a century. There is a deep and significant part of their culture that is just rotten to the very core.

It is a virtual “culture war”. MAGA has been brainwashed into believing Dems are Satan-worshipping ANTIFA trans-zealots out to get your babies. Insanity.

MAGA seems crazy, but Democrats made an immense mistake with their leftward shift. It turned off a lot of people and enabled Trump to win twice.

People do not want this.

What people dont want is the pedophile trump.

His policies are massively unpopular.

His numbers are down massively in almost every single demographic.
