The problem isn't proving that voting for that pair of morons was a mistake, the problem is getting the numbskulls who voted them in to admit they made a mistake.

Even when the shitstorm the orange utan and his couch fucker sidekick have unleashed hits them, they still won't admit they were wrong: they'll just say they were deceived.

They’ll never admit it. We will just notice the trump flags coming down. And eventually they’ll say they were never for it. But it may take decades.

We can not let them just slide past like they weren't into fascism, something has to be done as punishment.

But they will still vote republican if they can

Literally what happened last term. They all believed their own bullshit even though they voted for him all three times. The collective amnesia is real.

They 1984 themselves out of self preservation because admitting they are capable of making mistakes is in stark contrast with their ego.

I'm not sure if it's a new phenomenon or the internet has just made it easier to spot but there are vast swaths of people who live their lives with zero doubts of their past present and future, despite a third party view displaying massive incongruent behavior.

Attributing it to stupidity understates what is being observed here. It is an all encompassing psychosis.

For or against won't matter when he's made king.

People honestly need to learn this. Shaming shitty people every time they do a rare good thing is a terrible fucking strategy.

You still give them way too much credit for being able to take any accountability.

They will blame it on Democrats still, or unironically, on "Satan".

"If Satan is fighting so hard against Trump by crashing the economy and testing our faith, you know Trump must be doing something right, and following the path of God".
