It's Not about Policy - It's about Character and Morality

One thing I've noticed from the MAGAtes; they seem to think the disagreement about Trump is over political policy. They can't seem to grasp that it isn't about politics. A Trump voter exposes their character deficiency by supporting Trump.

If you voted for Trump, you are either malicious or grossly incompetent. That's why normal people want little or nothing to do with Trump voters: Trump fans are more defective than normal. They are incompetent decision makers. They pose a safety risk because they make ill-advised choices. I don't trust Trump voters. I don't believe they are honest people. If they're honest, they're complete assholes to actually desire what's currently happening to this country.

And/or they aren't paying attention. Or worse, they think they know what's going on, but really they're clueless morons swallowing all the BS available to confirm their idiot bias.

Republicans, according to recent polling, are more willing to date a Democrat than visa versa. That makes complete sense to me. Republicans don't understand how stupid and off-putting their Trump support is. They're so stupid, they not only voted for Trump, they also don't understand why that was damned dumb.

If you voted for Trump, there is something fundamentally wrong with you, and it is no surprise sane people want nothing to do with you. You're probably suffering, and I imagine you deserve it.

My only real disagreement is with your last observation, that any who rose to MAGA level are suffering. No, they aren't. They have big cheesy grins on their face and think they've won no matter what. I'd bet bet very few of those folks whose spouses are literally handcuffed by ICE in front of them feel betrayed. People who self-reflect suffer, people who raise their hands to the Lord and just believe erase away all that uncertainty and move forward knowing who they are and what's right is right. It's not fake it until you make it, it's fake it and keep on faking no matter what.

Those snagged by right-wing radio in the 90s cannot be any other way than they are. Fortunately, basic low information and incompetence explains enough of the problem that there is still hope enough punishment from the true believers will swing the pendulum back in the direction that got Joe Biden the largest number of votes in history.

I'm sure there are a few people like this who are closer to the administration, but your average blue collar Trump voter? I don't think they'd have voted for Trump if they were content humans.

It should be pointed out that voting for ****face is one thing; continuing to defend it at this point in its term... disgusting and inexcusable.
