    The fact that this person is still in US politics doesn’t say much about him … it says a lot about the American psyche … how disconnected does a country have to be to think that this individual is fit to represent them?

        I’d rather be in the Idiocracy timeline. At least the leaders in that timeline looked for, and hired, the smartest people they could find to solve problems.

      Generations of right-wing propaganda has led to a populace that will do anything they’re told. They’ve also managed to dehumanize anyone who disagrees with them, so people won’t leave the fold. (Who would want to be “vermin”, as trump/hitler/RTML(Rwanda) called their opponents.)
