Imagine if the dumbest person in the world and humanity’s biggest asshole were the same person, and that guy was president. Then imagine he started a war with Iran. Now check the news. One look, and here’s what you should be thinking: “Yep, that tracks.”
New York writer Fran Leibowitz put it best.
“You don’t know anyone as stupid as Donald Trump. You just don’t.”
Disagree. The guy’s actually quite media savvy and (somehow) understands how to tap into working class resentment.
(Never mind that people like him fucking regular folks over for decades are the reason the working class is resentful)
Only reason we even know who this loudmouth dumbass even is is because he was born into wealth. And later propped up (by Russians?) after his bankruptcies.
He bankrupted two casinos.
All he did in 2016 was say out loud what Nixon, Reagan, and the Bush family said quietly.
He’s playing on easy mode. Conservatives are so easy to fool, and he has a huge media system designed to control their thoughts through the most embarrassingly simple kinds of manipulation imaginable. He works for them as a loud, obnoxious figurehead so that everyone else can contimue to be evil like they’ve a been for many decades.
Literally any of his supporters. The only thing more stupid than being stupid is blindly trusting the dumbest person on the planet.
It’s quite the canundrum. Millions of people are tied for dumbest.
In my high school there were always a few senior boys who would make life terrible for everyone. Not just the younger kids, they’d go after the staff as well.
I figured it out eventually. These guys knew that once they graduated their lives were over. They had no skills, no connections, and zero opportunities for advancement. They could get the same jobs as their Dads, or join the military.
This is the mentality of a Trump voter. Their lives suck, so they’ll bring everyone else down.
Yep. If Donvict was not born rich he’d be one of those “peaked in high school” dumbasses that all of us have had the pleasure to know.
