    How could they not know he didn’t care?

    He essentially said so on numerous occasions, but I guess that went through the same “He means what he says but everything he says requires interpretation” mind machine.

    But as usual:

    “I voted for him, and he’s the one who’s doing this,” Crystal Minton told The New York Timesin an article published Monday. “I thought he was going to do good things. He’s not hurting the people he needs to be hurting.” (2019)

    They only care when it hurts themselves. They’re fine with hurting everyone else.

      Exactly that’s why im over this country. Like so what if the people finally realize “oh wow yeah trump really is a lying piece of shit who raped children”? They’re still gonna turn around and vote for Vance instead when Vance says "unlike trump, I really care about your personal finances!’

      Like we can expose trump all day and everyone vould actually agree with us for once, and it still wouldn’t fix the problem of these extrump voters still really wanting a fascist dictator who will round up minorities but maybe he won’t be so corrupt.

      The biggest thing i hear from extrump voters is “i thought he was the real deal” like they’re disappointed he never actually built the Wall, that he didn’t nuke iran and finish the war swiftly, that he didnt get all the gay characters off of televison. Like that’s what the mainstream american is, straight up. idc how progressive you and your friends are, there’s more of them than us. It’s not our country anymore.

        That ain’t true and you know it. This is basically psyop posting. Maybe they’re not all baby communists yet but 70% of the fucking country hates this clown.

        SEVENTY percent.

        Don’t ever let the slavers who made the voting system to exclude anyone but affluent slave owners tell you they outnumber you.

        Exactly. They still want a piece of shit to be president, they just want him to be a piece of shit to everyone they disagree with.
