"he dumb"
All those Men and Women who Served and Defended our Country are WOKE! I'm Supporting the Man who Made up an Illness to NOT Serve and then Called our Veterans Losers and Suckers!
If you couldn't figure out what Trump is in 8 years, then you're either a fucking moron or just an evil asshole who is after personal benefits.
Sadly the world is full of morons. As the late, great George Carlin said:
Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.
There are a lot that just want to see others hurt, too. Even if they get zero benefits.
My mother still thinks he’s basically harmless. We have a no politics rule because his first term nearly made me cut her out of my life.
This is basically the same for me. During covid my parents driftet into the conspiracy theories and never got out(tbf I also kinda got into that shit, but somehow got out of it, a bit after it was undeniable, that the vaccination was safe). After about 1.5 years of constant discussions they stopped talking about that shit in my presence because nobody of us liked the constant fights. Nowadays I also always try to stay away from their "friends" (they now almost exclusively have social interactions with other conspiracy theorists), because its much healthier for me to not be forced to listen to their dumb bullshit.
That might be the right way to deal with someone who supports ending democracy.
Don't forget hateful racists
They're prob in the Evil bucket of trash
I don’t understand how military people support republicans. It’s their faults we lost so many children in the Middle East. As well as their fault for how little we are taking care of our soldiers who come home.

What choice do they really have? If they believe their oath of allegiance to the Constitution.
Just saying
Foreign AND domestic, you say?
These guys claim Trump is ill-informed, but how many classified documents do they have?
I'm pretty sure he hasn't read any of the ones he's had piled up in the bathroom.
You don't need to read them to sell them.
I've yet to see evidence trump can read at any comprehension level, so while he has many documents, only Kid Rock and a handful of foreign spies have been able to read them.
Wow, the RINO population has exploded. All that so called climate change is obviuosly good for plants/grass that they eat.

How do you convince regular folk who’re just trying to get by and make sense of the world? They don’t even know what they stand to lose by voting in unsafe people like most Republicans
By making sure they do not need to try, but can be sure they can get by.
