      America is full of idiots. So yes they might not get it but they probably do think trump will do something good. Or they just want worse for the minority. Idk i dont understand all this either.

          As a disappointed American, you are so right. Im sorry for not voting even if i think it wouldn’t have mattered, if all non voters stood up and voted we could have turned the whole country blue. I personally feel responsible for trump and i hate it

          If you can convince the lowest white man he’s better than the best colored man, he won’t notice you’re picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he’ll empty his pockets for you.

        Totally. They’re smart enough to know they’re getting screwed, but then they do the worst possible thing to lessen the screw.

      Unfortunately most people don’t think beyond swapping to the other guy when things are bad under the current one

        Let’s hope we still have elections in 4 years once people are mad at Trump for making the economy worse like in 2020
