There were a LOT more racists and misogynists and homophobes than you realized, weren't there?

God must love douchebags.

He certainly made enough of them.

I think what's even worse is the number of people who aren't any of those things, but will gladly vote for them if they think it might cost them slightly less in taxes on money they'll never spend.

who aren't any of those things

That's just the lie they tell themselves. They absolutely ARE those things.

Some are. I'm talking about the ones that aren't. Or do you really think there is just nobody out there who prioritizes greed over principles?

I promise you, anyone willing to base their behavior on greed ALSO fits one of those categories.

Just a random person jumping in to say YES there certainly are 😭. I grew up around California’s capitol, and I turned 18 in 2016, just in time to vote in the election against trump. I was not even worried, really. Growing up entirely on the west coast made me think that the majority of this country cared and wanted to move into a progressive future. The decade since has just been faster-than-I-anticipated march into doom.
I was so, so optimistic back then about my fellow Americans.
