He doesn’t think we’re all idiots- just the ones voting for him. He knows they’re easily manipulated. He knows they’re uneducated. And he knows they are many.
EDIT: looks like one of his coward minions predictably downvoted this without a rebuttal.
Yup, they believe in him unquestioningly. He can say two opposing things one after the other, and his voter base will believe both things he says. It's insane.
It's called a cult
It's too bad their cult does not involve abstaining from sex and cutting off their own nuts.
It does, just for the "bad people"
I shared the actual PDF with my mother and father, and they told me it was "liberal propaganda". Funny thing is, they aren't uneducated or stupid. They've just had Fox News and conservative talk-radio playing in the background of their lives for 20+ years. It's actually really sad. They used to be Hank Hill type conservatives, now they refuse to even entertain opinions (or facts, for that matter) that they don't already believe.
My dad is the same. He’s full blown MAGA. most of the family won’t talk to him anymore. He’s obnoxious and insulting.
Cool story. Bye!
Removed, civility.
Fair enough
