You are arguing with a Trumphumper. Hopeless. They live in a media bubble created by their billionaire overlords, whom they treat as gods, void of facts or thought (X, Twoof Social disease, Facebook, Fox, Newsmax, oan, soon to be tiktok, cbs). They repeat whatever outrageous meme they have been fed over and over without question or thought. They talk about hating elites, then parrot literally anything these billionaires tell them via their right wing media machine.
Being minimally educated is the first line of defense against this onslaught of lies, half truths and ridiculously transparently slanted opinions, often self contradicting. Unfortunately, minimal education is a bar most of them can't overcome. Of course, they are all in on tearing down an educational system that helps expose this ignorance.
They are mostly angry old men who's kids got educated and left and can see through the obvious lies. For many, their wives left. If not, they too are bitter that their children don't want to hear their culture war bull every family get together, so they just stay away. Bitter old man & sometimes woman now blame woke, liberals, education, immigrants etc. and refuse to acknowledge their own ignorance and constant stream of anger/hate. It is a sad existence. I'd suggest pity for them, but they chose this and continue to spew anger, hate, racism, blame everywhere but at the problems actually dividing us and showing they have zero morals or principles everyday. In the case of this message board, they do it hundreds of times a day. Bitter old losers wallowing in their self created misery.
This is something that some folks like to tell themselves (and anyone else who will listen). However, the demographic you describe (bitter old men and sometimes women) cannot possibly amount to more than 15% of the electorate. And yet, Trump wins 50% of the vote and has 40% approval ratings.
There is something else going on.
I used to have the opinion that you could look at either political party and find 5 - 10% who were legitimate nutjobs. And yet, with the current GOP, that percentage appears to be closer to 90%. I have had to update my understanding of the prevalence of nutjobism.
I would suggest that a similar update might be due for your own understanding here. The Trumpettes are a whole lot larger than the "bitter old men" demographic.
FFS when the outgoing president was presiding over a violent conspiracy to overthrow the government of the united states of america, any judge would authorize a warrant into looking into who he was crimeing with. Good lord.

You say it is hopeless arguing with a Trumphummer? Then why are you arguining with a Trumphummer?!?

Trump’s landslide win was only possible by doing incredibly well among (almost) every group. He won like a Republican has never won before.

No real disagreement, but these old men are their only >50% demographic and their most motivated voters. Lots of time on their hands to rage click through X memes and get fired up to vote. There are plenty of younger republican voters, though as the Pew Research info shows, they are the minority in the under 50 demographic.
The "why" to me is pretty clear. A few morally bankrupt billionaires (is there another kind?) bought up media sources and turned them into a cesspool of right wing lies. Fact checking was the first thing to go. The motive is profit, but not from the media source. The real profit comes from installing a corrupt government willing to hand over the keys of the kingdom to oligarchs. These media companies came with a big audience and they could be fed a constant stream of things that would make them mad, get them engaged and on board with the "anything for billionaires" agenda. That stream only needs the slightest basis in reality if the audience seeks no other source, and most don't.
Trump is not popular. Maga wants desperately for this to be false. But needing to rig elections, anger/scare voters, divide America, buy media companies show this. Even with all that, they get 49% of the vote at best. Unfortunately, that was enough. Now we all pay for that with a tanking economy and massive corruption.
A recently revealed document alleges that the FBI, under the Biden administration, secretly obtained phone records of eight sitting Republican senators and one representative as part of a probe known as "Arctic Frost." This investigation reportedly focused on alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 election. Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) disclosed the findings, claiming the actions were a severe case of political overreach, even "arguably worse than Watergate." New York Post
Partnership with the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) Records indicate that during President Biden’s administration, the DOJ's Civil Rights Division formed a partnership with the SPLC, a far-left organization. The SPLC assisted in training DOJ prosecutors and had exclusive early access to federal hate crimes data, influencing internal DOJ communications and policy development on hate crimes, anti-LGBTQ violence, and civil rights enforcement. Critics argue that this collaboration compromised impartial justice and civil rights enforcement. New York Post
So you have nothing but this weak as hell Chat-GPT response. Gotcha.
Bozo posted a predictable half-assed, unsupportable conspiracy theory in response to your open-ended softball question. You were unable to handle it (as I predicted). You were the one with nothing. You biffed this.
Q: Are you concerned about the delays at airports?
Trump: They're all Democrats delays…I look at people with very low IQs like Crockett, this woman Crockett. I've never met her but she's a low IQ individual
