      Pretty sure outrage fatigue is how we lost this election unfortunately. The gish gallop from orange Satan NEVER ENDSSSSSS. Why is it such an effective strategy? I can’t even listen to him talk without being repulsed

      Not saying you meant it that way, I’m saying 71 million Americans did. The more I think about it the more fucked it looks. Ngl, I hate the Democrats as much as the next person, but fuck, man, never in a million year would I vote for a person like Trump. It’s fucking insanity. How can anyone listen to this man talk and say “ah, this is going to be a good president”? Just how?

          Two types of people voted for this dude, evil, selfish assholes who know exactly what he is and want to line up their pockets. And misinformed poor folks who are fooled by some outlet like MSM or something similar.

        Honestly I think many of them don’t listen to him talk. They just passively absorb what’s thrown their way.
