i hear from trumpists that he

has accomplished so much in office and that's the reason (s) they'd vote for him again.

WTF has he accomplished except for making America the laughing stock of the world ?

8. I have gone to using "make believe" in place of believe in statements like your post.

Seems to work better. Pretend is also correct.

Certainly not doing appreciably better now. 2019 was a great year for the market, but 2018 kind of sucked.

7. The point is, they don't have a dog in this fight. Only the people with pensions and the wealthy

They're fed lies that they refuse to acknowledge as lies so they "believe" the US is more respected now, and that #Traitor is getting the military out of the ME, that NATO and South Korea are shit and weren't "paying their fair share". They like that he cozies up to dictators and snubs Macron and Trudeau.

They think new NAFTA is hugely different and better than old NAFTA.

They also don't believe in climate change so his active derogation of those who are terrified about our future like Greta Thunberg amuses him.

There's also the judges. The fucking judges...

And the religious whackos who think he's some kind of god-king.

It's a cult
