I fail to understand how most people can see the Trump grift from miles away, and others are completely blind to it 🤔
They aren’t blind, they just think they aren’t the ones being grifted.
Which is both a fundamental part of the grift and says a lot about people.
There are a lot of wealthy elite Republican Trump supporters who think installing an authoritarian regime will consolidate and extend their power. They don’t see that authoritarianism means the only thing protecting them from a purge is the thought of it by the leader. Their wealth, power and privilege, CEO or Senator, mean precicely shit. Just look to Saudi Arabia China or Russia to see how fragile power is.
