They're Not Stupid, and They're Not Spineless. They're Evil. Let's Keep That Straight.

They are enthusiastically FOR Trump and the horrible Republican programs that are so destructive and harmful to the American people. They may not like Trump as a person, and may in fact despise him. But they love Trump’s racism, his hatred of “uppity” women, the way Trump shovels money into the pockets of the rich, the wildly unqualified right-wing nutjobs Trump is putting on the Federal bench, and the way Trump grinds the faces of the poor and sick into the ground. They get off on it, as a matter of fact
---
These people want unlimited, unfettered, unrestrained, unaccountable power. They want this power to enrich themselves, enrich their friends, maintain their social status, and forcibly impose their so-called “values” on everyone else. These people do not—DO NOT—believe in the principles on which a democratic republic rests. In fact, they emphatically reject them as “mob rule”. Being “conservatives” (a word the meaning of which has been utterly distorted), they advocate the same things American conservatism has always advocated: rule by a small group of wealthy white men.

All of their reasons...every single one...is wrong. There is no good reason to support this disgusting human being.

stupid and spineless. Besides possessing many other negative attributes. There might be a small amount of them that are actually intelligent and have a plan that will benefit only them and their kind, but most of these people are operating from pure id and ego. They are not evolved human beings.
