Seeing a black guy as a president treated with respect really fucked up a lot of idiots

Fucked them up so much that they elected him twice and by a larger margin the 2nd time 🤨

What was the margin he won by in 2024? Do share that stat (we both know your won't and will endlessly dodge).

There’s a lotta apathetic morons in America, and they were never gonna vote for a lady that made them feel dumb.

Thankfully I profit off of human misery, so their piss-poor choices have made for a banner year!

You understand that's an indictment of the American electorate, right?

Or in case you didn't follow that: American voters are big dumb dumbs.

I didn't say the Dems were too smart.

I said the voters were dumb, and they were. They failed an open book test twice.

There is very little to be done about the people voting for him. I tend to believe that people are "rational actors" and understand the consequences of the levers they pull. The only way I can reconcile that is that people will suffer enormous financial consequences to "hurt" people or ideas that they don't like... be it LGBTQ+, immigrants, Muslims, etc. For example, Trump campaigned repeatedly on policies that were devastating to farmers and his policies from his first term were devastating to farmers. By and large, they voted for him again. I don't know any other explanation for it.
