This guy seems like a loser. Sure you want to run him, GOP?
Guess the fascism is more important to them.
He's just a means to an end.
Don't forget the racism, bigotry, child rapey misogyny, et. al.
Not necessarily the fascism directly, but definitely the racism. The fascism is often a side effect of forcing a minority rule state behind a strongman so the followers can force their racist views to be accepted by the majority. It doesn't help that now have generational education deficits from decades of conservative undermining of the school systems that's manifesting itself in undereducated people being crushed by a capitalist system designed to extract maximal wealth from the public and those people being frustrated while their propaganda channels tell them it's all my the fault of minorities and liberals.
It's a real shitty stew we've brewed here. The confluence of ill education, crushing economics, and propaganda pointing us to fight each other for crumbs is really making our country into a sticky wicket.
I’m convinced more and more that the people who support him are jealous and wish to be him. They vote for him specifically because they wish they could act like he does. In reality, I think it means that many are actually terrible and selfish people.
I think it’s a lot of narcissism for sure.
As long as he gets the votes, they get the boats
