    He’s never been in sheep’s clothing. He’s always been a wolf. He just convinced fucktards that sheep are woke.

    “I feel betrayed, like he was a wolf in sheep’s clothing,” Bright, who has several disabling medical conditions, said. “It’s like high school class president: ‘I’m gonna promise we are going to get pizza every single day,’” Bright said. “Then as soon as they get elected, they are like, ‘Oh, I lied.’”

    You feel… betrayed…? That a well-known and notorious liar and grifter lied to and grifted you…? Just like he did the first fucking stint he had?

    No, this one gets chalked up to “user error”. This is on you. Fucking idiot.

      I bought the snake oil. It didn’t work.

      So I bought it again. It still didn’t work.

      I kept buying the snake oil over and over, for years, it never worked.

      Now I’m starting to think that I may be immune to snake oil.

        Honestly, the general tenor of not giving a fuck, uncritical acceptance/bandwagoning, and anti-intellectualism of my countrymen is one of the biggest things that makes me want to fuck off from here.

      If only she had more than a decade of evidence that Donald Trump was a pathological liar that didn’t just spilt hairs, deflect, or cite misleading statistics like most politicians, but actually told complete fabrications on easily disprovable subjects where there was ample evidence that he was making shit up completely.

        This is why the, “all politicians lie though” excuse is such bullshit. It’s not even close to the same thing.

        I don’t think people give the indoctrination angle as much credit as it should get. Imagine some 4 year old, where the only thing in the world they want is their parents love and affection. Of course they’re going to do/say what makes their parents happy. I feel bad for them, still unforgivable imo.

        Religious indoctrination is equally saddening to think about.

    It’s exhausting wading through these self-serving, woe-is-me entreaties. “I had no idea he would do the thing he promised he’d do! How was I to know that all those millions of people telling me to not vote for a criminal, rapist traitor were on to something?”

    Fuck off and die in a hole, you piece of shit. You inflicted this on us. I do not and will not forgive you.

    How fucking dare someone draw Trump as a wolf. The only form befitting of that piece of human trash is a mosquito or a big leech, maybe a microorganism causative of disease.

    You’re forgetting the parts where everyone was telling you how it was impossible, asking how he would pay for all of the pizza, and then you screaming back “fuck you nerds”.

    Oh and the fact that we’re not in high school and your adult level critical thinking skills should have seen right through the obvious lies

    Shit like this is genuine evidence that conservatives are disproportionately easily suggestible morons who cannot think critically.

    Pathologize them, come on psychology/psychiatry, do it.

    The evidence is here.

    They’re objectively morons who believe what authority figures tell them, they’re functionally disabled in any society that involves … you know, thinking, considering different explanations for things.

    They’re also disproportionately very violent, self-centered, have low impulse control, and are driven by a need to harm those they view as not part of their group.

    They aren’t capable of indepedent moral reasoning.

    They’re also very prone to religious psychoses.

      thats why they fall for actual scams very easily, they like to believe otherwise , like something that is too good to be true, cant be bad, they actually something is too good to be true as fact.

          They’re definitely the most religious. I doubt they’re more right wing than army or marines. MPs were the worst, most cruel people I’ve ever met. Even worse than grunts and I was around a lot of both.
