2. They're hopeless

Though some of them are undoubtedly just trolls.

5. It'd make a great case analysis.

One of the internet analytics companies that track traffic should work with Joe on research how many of his followers are pure Russian Bullshit?

20. My parents are like that...

If Trump says something, then it's absolute fact no matter what the evidence suggest. Can't even discuss it, because it's like one ear out the other. No attempt to analyze what was said, or even refute the actual content of what I said. It's literally some cult-like insanity. I would assume they are all trolls too if I didn't know people like that. Even when I try to appeal to their conservative sensibilities when it comes to pointing out something negative about Trump, it doesn't work. You're right when you say hopeless.

29. It is so much more disturbing

when it comes from someone you know and love or at least someone you thought you knew. Not only is Trump a con artist and a fraud, he's not even a very good con artist, so it is hard to see what on earth his followers are buying. My idea of a persuasive flimflam man is someone with charm, charisma, intelligence, and often good looks. Trump is more like a con artist wannabe. Can you imagine Donald Trump selling one trombone to the good folks of River City? Even televangelists are more articulate and appealing than Trump.

My sister and I have an understanding to avoid politics if we want to remain family. I knew she watched Fox News, but until very recently I had no idea she supported Trump. I really didn't think she could possibly be that brainwashed and then it came out when she posted a few obnoxious Facebook memes. I tried to explain to her that my negative reaction wasn't about politics, it was because I really care about her and it upsets me that anyone could do that to her mind.

It often feels like we're living in some cheesy futuristic dystopian movie, where a large percentage of the population has been mind-altered by their overlords, in this case Fox News and other right-wing media. It appears that science fiction writers of the 20th century were our modern day prophets.

By the way, my daughter said she has just started responding to Trumpers with something like, "I know you're smarter than that", rather than arguing with them. Hopefully, it plants a seed. It worked with her uncle a few years back. I hope some day you get back the parents you lost.

6. They just have to BELIEVE hard enough...

... to make them true!

Like a person getting "healed" in a church.

Trump loyalists begging with former Trump supporters, except mostly with a different skin color:

9. Eeek.. I Rt a joe walsh tweet. i think it should

get out there.. TY, Nd!

[smirkymonkey]

10. It's really disturbing that almost half of the people in this country are brainwashed idiots

whose minds are completely impervious to reason.

Sometimes I think of what and when our "turning point" will be. When will it become too late for this country to be saved for democracy and for those who would save it? When will we know when all is lost and there is still time to flee while we still have our lives? I know most of you will think that impossible and too dramatic, but others have thought the same in other times and they were unfortunately too optimistic.

I still have hope that we can overcome this push toward fascism, however even if we get rid of Trump and his administration, what is to be done with his die hard supporters, of which there are legion. They aren't going to just disappear. I honestly don't know the answer or what the future holds, but this is something I think about often.

[yuiyoshida]

12. They are the ones who will die in this pandemic.. when we hit 200,000 by November ...

many of them will be on ventilators.

[smirkymonkey]

15. I hope you are right.

Because they really need to go if this country is to survive.

[yuiyoshida]

16. I don't really wish for any more deaths.. but if

THIS SHIT scares them enough to never voter Republican again, than so be it.

[Vdizzle]

17. Yep! I agree with you. The brainwashed masses have proved themselves worthy of natural selection.

I’m done. Their stupidity is ruining our country, our planet, and our future. Eff them. They can suck a big ol covid egg.

[diane in sf]

19. I think you could call it natural deselection, lol.

[Sapient Donkey]

22. Unfortunately they also infect other people who are attempting to be safe

Some of them even kill their own kids in the process.

[tinrobot]

11. The same Joe Walsh who shouted "You Lie" at Obama?

If so... words escape me.

[Progressive Jones]

14. No. The guy who yelled "You lie!" is named Joe Wilson.

21. I do recall Joe Walsh being pretty pro-trump early on, though

I remember a couple years back being surprised when I saw him hitting Trump pretty hard considering he has a fair amount of right-wing craziness inside of him too.

[Progressive Jones]

23. Walsh got into Congress as a "tea bagger". He was my rep. for a minute, unfortunately.

He's been on Trump's ass almost from the start. Walsh is a douche bag, but he's been pretty principled
when it comes to trashing Trump.

"My enemy's enemy is my friend..."

[Sapient Donkey]

26. Maybe I was confusing him with someone else then, or it was really early stuff I saw

[Progressive Jones]

27. He was probably on board for the 2016 election, but he started smacking Trump around soon after. nt

13. "...we're gonna needa bigger boat..."

[LuckyLib]

18. When I hear the name "Joe Walsh" I think of the excellent guitarist from the Eagles.

[SergeStorms]

25. Yeah, same here...

The James Gang, Solo albums, finally The Eagles.

[JohnnyRingo]

24. Took me awhile to realize it wasn't that Joe Walsh.

Should have known when he said he said only a million followers.

[Progressive Jones]

28. Tea Bagger Joe Walsh has a radio show here in Chicago. That's the only reason

he has ANY followers.

[pwb]

30. The Russian Bots are strong.

That sounds like a organized response to me. Joe is right there is not always another side to everything. They do this to everything.
