They will be remembered as people who completely renounced reason. People who blindly, unconditionally followed a mentally ill, corrupt, fool.
They followed a lunatic who did something only a lunatic could do. He tried to hide, cover up a pandemic. Something that is impossible to do. This led to the murder of tens of thousands of Americans. They unconditionally followed someone who said we should take unproven drugs and disinfectant to cure ourselves.
Trump voters turned their backs on the constitution, the rule of law, our democracy, in order to unconditionally follow a lunatic.
The evangelical Trump voters committed hypocrisy in the name of Jesus. According to their own faith , they are going to hell for that. You can't serve Jesus and Trump at the same time. I'm not religious and I know that.
When Trump is removed from office, the entire truth will come out. In time Trump voters will slowly creep away into the night. In time, it will be very hard to find someone to admit they were a Trump supporter.

(66,096 posts)I'm still aghast that anyone would ever want that as a goal for the government of the United States. "Shake things up". What a stupid fucking thing to want.
Do they feel shaken yet?
Are they beginning to understand the value of using the vote and our Constitutional governmental framework to effect positive change for the American citizenry over "shaking things up"?
I sure fucking hope so.

(32,017 posts)Most of them will lie and deny that they voted for Trump. Thats what happened after JFK was assassinated. After the assassination, something like 75% of Americans claimed that they voted for Kennedy in 1960, but that was a very close race. If 75% of Americans actually HAD voted for Kennedy, he would have won in a landslide. He didnt. Nixon was nearly elected in 1960, despite the fact that Dwight Eisenhower said he wouldnt buy a used car from that SOB.
Many people will lie and deny that they ever supported Trump.

(28,729 posts)We have two Maggots in our social group. There may be others I dont know. Politics and the existence of god are totally off the table. But of course, they always drop a soft bomb once in awhile.
Anyway, Mr Lake and I are holding our tongue until Nov. Then we are going to laugh in their faces soooo much. Trump and the rest hate getting laughed at.
Its gonna be wonderful...
I know, Im as bad as they are...
Laughter is the best medicine.
Steve King gone. I can hardly hold my own!!!

(61,418 posts)Their social media is full of recipes and cute photos of pets and children. I have no doubt that they'll vote for him again, but they're not bragging about it anymore. I think they believe they are martyrs. They suffer silently because the rest of us just don't understand.

(15,805 posts)Strange as it seems, the longer he has been out of office, there are fewer and fewer people who will openly admit to actually voting for him once let alone twice!
I suspect that Trump will be the same. We will be shocked to learn that Trump was the first president in history elected by no voters.

(66,096 posts)Naivete often has goodness at its heart. No one who voted for Trump can objectively be called a good person. They knew who he was for years before the 2016 election. And they voted for him enthusiastically anyway. The "I just didn't trust Hillary"-types are full of shit. Trump has never, ever proven himself trustworthy in any way whatsoever.
The people who voted for Trump are evil POS's who wanted exactly what has been happening in, and to, this country for the past four years.

Its worth it to them.
1. Abortion
2. Guns
3. Stopping "Socialism"
4. Owning the Libs
5. "The alternative was worse"
And if Trump loses in 2020, they'll scream for him to run in 2024.

(2,022 posts)I have been seeing Trump 2020 bumper stickers and yard signs for months already. If they haven't given up on him at this point, they never will. For every future problem, they will claim that Trump would have solved it already. And of course Trump will continue tweeting, weighing in on every move by Pres Biden.
