I will make it simple for you. There are 2 candidates for president. Let's say Bernie Sanders versus Trump. Bernie is pretty much assured of having a strong majority in the House and in the Senate as well as having a strongly liberal Supreme Court. He is up against Trump. The presidential race is going to be close but everything else is a strong slam dunk for the Democrats/Socialists. Who are you going to vote for? And if you did decide to vote for Trump are you necessarily voting for him OR against Sanders?
Hey Simpleton, you have no ability to make anything simple for anyone else. You support Trump. You defend him at every turn. Trump was a lawless dictator, so anyone with a brain would vote for anyone but him.
I know that, at least in some smarty-pants circles , it's not fashionable to "simply" call Trump voters/supporters dumb. But it's hard not to continually fall upon that word - no matter the measurable intelligence, education level, life success, etc. of the person. It's like none of them have ever seen - or can conceive of - a simple pros-and-cons listing. As in:
Pros of Trump/Trumpism Winning: People like Bernie and AOC don't get even higher taxes, and we don't forgive a bunch of college debt, and we (PERHAPS) let in slightly fewer 3rd world immigrants and/or illegal aliens, and a bunch of other liberal policies that might irritate you.
Cons of Trump/Trumpism Winning: We will continue to lie to your face and insult your intelligence on a daily or hourly basis, we will continue to try to steal elections, we will severely abuse executive power, we will shake down foreign leaders, we will do our best to humiliate our traditional allies and praise our autocratic adversaries, we will ignore and/or contribute to the sickness and death of hundreds of thousands of Americans should another pandemic happen to come along, etc., etc., etc.
Can't see which of these lists is worse? Sorry, that's just dumb. Well, not JUST dumb. Also immoral and unethical and TRULY un-American and a bunch of other bad things.
