(23,686 posts)...I see them all the time. Split image. On the left, Obama or Biden saying something, MAGAts in a RAGE. On the right, Trump saying basically the same thing, but whatever he's proposing is ultimately VERY HARMFUL to them, and they're all high-fiving each other and yelling "YEAH!"
I think I've stopped trying to understand it, because really...what COULD anyone tell us about how they process his nonsense that would make us go "Well, yeah, I can see that..."
I've said it many times...I thought he was a boorish, annoying pig LONG before he came down the escalator.
And I do get the "HE hates all of the people WE hate" thing, but when he says things like "I like uneducated people. Smart people don't like me," and they cheer, I really don't think they fully understand what they're cheering for.

Thats why the entire business community never trusted him or his old man. They knew just how crooked they were.
Stealing money from a childrens charity they set up, cheating on his taxes, etc

(25,918 posts)The other day when he was speaking in front of a live crowd and he came upon the line about the "corner store," I noticed that after he made the comment questioning who wrote that line, and said he never heard of that phrase before, his cult laughed. The rest of us were like, "WTF is wrong with him?" Too much goes right over their heads.

(4,415 posts)to be a t suppoter/magat means one has some form of mental illness.
A few seem like they can be helped, but most should probably be locked away in a mental institution for their own good and the good of society.

(69,466 posts)Fox News, hate radio, internet sites, podcasters, influencers... they get people riled up and emotional: mostly anger and fear.
People stoked on anger and fear don't use logic to make decisions. They lash out. They go in the voting booth and gloat that their vote for Trump will make other people unhappy. The people they've been told to resent and fear.
