These folks will never ask themselves if it was worth worshipping trump and trusting his every word. They will remain all in until death. They are ignorant AF but surely if he had taken COVID seriously from the start a lot of these people would have followed his lead. Elections have consequences.

America has now lost more lives to Covid in less than a year than it lost in combat in 4 years during WWII. But what matters is voter "fraud". The definition of a failed country under failed leadership.
Exactly.
From a NY Times Opinion article today:
"It’s not that the coronavirus can’t be controlled: Europe had a terrible autumn wave but reined in the virus — while keeping schools open. Yet the United States as a whole still can’t match Europe in rationally managing the virus. That goes back to weak American governance; if only Trump tackled a real virus as aggressively as he does fake electoral rigging."
Had he acted like a leader he would have won. Instead his piss poor ego led him to a catastrophic loss and hundreds of thousands of unnecessary deaths. There is no question who the biggest losers are, those who lost their lives and their loved ones.. which also includes a lot of trumpers. Electing Trump was a tragedy from every angle.

Certainly its not just iggy. Keep in mind the subconscious need to reduce cognitive dissonance. . If you were iggy would you rather discuss how your perception of reality, Trump winning, was contradicted, or would you rather focus on Hunter?
Nail has been hit on it’s head. It doesn’t take much investing in an opinion to find yourself feeling so deeply buried that changing course isn’t an option. This is especially true for simpletons like Igy. This is why most trumpers never left his side from the start. Those who didn’t see the light immediately after he entered the WH found themselves getting buried further in the rabbit hole with every new ridiculous thing trump would do. He hooked them and they couldn’t help it, they just kept contorting whichever way necessary to keep worshipping him. Through the thousands of lies, awful decisions, lawlessness, impeachment, grift, turning a blind eye to COVID, they hung in there. They are all in and most are doing whatever mental and emotional gymnastics they could to prevent coming to terms with reality. Look at Biff. He’s completely deranged. He will eventually get to where Sally is, total butthurtness, but he still needs to get to the point where he’s not longer denying reality. Igy is just a complete mess, totally rudderless while he pretends the orange guy still matters. Yeah let’s talk about Hunter though, LOLz.
We can’t really help these people but I offer a toast to all their delicious butthurt tears. Bahahahaha! ?????????????????
Here’s a sad but still funny exchange. Can you spot the tzee?

This is a good sign. There are more and more “normal” headlines like these which tells me we are starting to move on from the ridiculous and nauseating trump clown show.

Generally you only use "Dr." as a title if you are a doctor of medicine or psychology, doctor of dentistry or doctor of veterinary medicine.
Imagine you are on a plane and the stewardess shouts out, "Is there a doctor on board?" And Jill Biden steps forward and declares: "Yes!!! I am a doctor! ... of education!" Every one would laugh at her.

I wonder if Trish Zornio would have been such a staunch defender of a doctor of education using "Dr." as a title if it was Melania Trump with a Ph. d and she was calling herself "Dr. Melania Trump."

You'll have to keep wondering because the chance of Melania acquiring a doctorate is about equal to Trump doing the same. Or a chimp.

And yet...I'd bet that she'd be intelligent enough to know exactly what was being asked for, and not to volunteer herself as a doctor *in that situation*. Shucks, even I would know enough to keep quiet about my own doctorate.
But, by all means, let's posit another straw man. It might help us to forget that--*using his own criteria*--Donald Trump lost in a landslide. The voters of the United States resoundingly rejected his failed administration and now we're moving to a less destructive situation: one where discussing the title of a woman who *is* a doctor might be more interesting and relevant than the flailing of someone who fancies himself smarter and more knowledgeable than *actual* doctors.

You added an important element. As they went further down the rabbit hole or the more progressively crazier things that they found themselves agreeing with , the more dissonance it created for them to say they were wrong. They were too committed. (Use of the word committed associated them was an unintended though maybe appropriate pun - after all there is an element of crazy there))

Imagine someone suggested you are threatened by women smarter or more accomplished than you and you responded by belittling the intelligence accomplishments of the women involved.
Except we don't have to imagine that.

Guy with absolutely no traction to his name writes highly provocative article? Yeah, we call those trolls. Like all of the cast of The Real World, some people will do and say anything just to get their name out there.

You're definitely going easy on the lefty commies there. Just the election and Covid stats rigged? Hell no!
Rigged polls, rigged climate "change", rigged media coverage, rigged blacks are as human as whites, rigged women should vote, rigged "theory" of evolution, rigged Kepler's "laws", rigged "theory" of general relativity, . . .
Heck, the list goes on forever! Those damned lefty, commie pinkos have GOT to be stopped!

You really are some kind or rare competitor for the daily SKOSSY award or else you live in a bubble if you are not routinely familiar with those with doctorate's of non-medical fields who are referred to as "Dr.".
The plane scenario you offered does lock in today's SKOSSY award however. So congrats on that.

Are you sure we’re not the same poster? More recently I’ve thought about their craze for trump like an abusive relationship. The abuser creates a deep and passionate connection to trap the other. Once they’re trapped it’s really hard to get out. The more beatings and abuse the more captive and helpless the person feels and the more empowered the abuser feels. Trump has been basically $hitting in his supporter’s mouths and open wide with pleasure. When others (Dems) try to explain to trumpers what has happened to them, they lash out and protect the abuser. Committed, trapped, hypnotized, imprisoned... it’s all there. What’s worse though is that these people have never met trump and have no dependence on him, so it’s just fkn pathetic that he was able to so easily and permanently fool them.

My point is that there are some signs of shifting back to “reality” where this type of nonsense is the “news” again. After 4 years of this make up wearing low IQ psychopath it’s actually refreshing.
