If you really want to read about it

obviously his second wife was not his type.

I don’t get why nearly half the voting public in the US sees him as some sort of saviour, not as is (I believe correctly) portrayed in that video?

Half of America? slightly less but anyway, they think the same way he does so they believe him. You should be able to talk gutter talk and be unapologetic.

After all, they have the pilgrim fathers to thank for all of that.

It is a bit more nuanced than that. From what I understand, Trumps approval within the registered Republican voters (i.e. those that will choose who the candidate is) is approval rating is at around 50%. So he is a good chance of winning the nomination.

However, in the general voting population his numbers are quite low, down the mid 20s.

So it is quite possible that the MAGA crowd will prevail, but will select a candidate who is unelectable in a general election.

I mean, he got nearly half the vote in their last presidential election.

He only needed 12,000 votes in Georgia wasn’t it?

Oh, I was talking about today, after all the insurrection stuff and the various legal trials are public knowledge. That is all happened since the last election, and his overall popularity has tanked sharply since then.

Fair enough. I still don’t get that even one-in-five approve of him. It just doesn’t make sense to me.

They’re fucked in the head.

Realistically, it is like they have joined a cult, or a religion, rather than taking up a certain political persuasion. Humans seem particularly prone to this in all sorts of ways, not just Trumpism. But once converted to a particular brand they are very hard to deconvert, even long after their beliefs are demonstrably shown to be false.

So perhaps they are just being human, and being fucked in the head is a human trait.

Did i just hear an echo from 2016?

Winning Georgia would not have won him the election.

It wasnt close in either the popular vote (lost by 7 million votes) or electoral college (lost 232 to 306).

Also … technically only 31% of the adult population voted for him. 33% didn’t vote at all.

Nothing about Trump makes sense.

I’ve said before that I was a Trump supporter in the lead up to the 2016 election. I didn’t give a fuck about any “grab ‘em by the pussy” nonsense or anything like that; Trump appealed to me because his message was “Drain the swamp- the political bureaucracy needs a clean out, political lobbying has to be controlled, rich people like me get all sorts of tax benefits and that’s not fair to the rest of you”. I saw a youtube video showing Trump in various interviews over the past decade with people like Oprah, and he had been saying the same message for all that time. I recognized his childish and immature behavior, but assumed he was just working the system, doing it for the publicity, better to have people talking about you negatively than not talking about you at all, and that on becoming President he would pull on the big boy pants and start acting like a responsible adult.

It didn’t take long after his inauguration for me to start realizing I had been wrong about him. That all those things he had said which I approved of were just bullshit. I fully turned on him for his handling of both COVID and the George Floyd protests.

I presume people that still like him are still seeing the same things I used to. Changing your opinion is not something people do easily… there are all sorts of cognitive biases working against us in that regard.

Additionally we are living through the collapse of white supremacy. White people will be a minority in America by 2045. Like it or not, minorities in society do not have it as good as majorities, and there are a hell of a lot of people seem to be holding a grudge against the paler amongst us for the whole colonialism thing. Regardless of any moral, ethical or “woke” considerations, it is somewhat insane for a majority group to voluntarily give up it’s power over other groups. Trump is seen by many of his supporters as a trail blazer in fighting back against this white demographic collapse.
