I guess their vote is testament to the how effective RW media is and the lies on the Internet.

I sort of get the die hard republicans that vote straight ticket Republican. I would have a hard time voting for a republican under almost any circumstances. I'd like to think I would cross party lines if the script was flipped, but I would worry that my dad would roll over in his grave.

The biggest cult ever. His followers will do anything for him. It's not about country to them. It's about their leader. We are living in the Twilight Zone.

If he remains we will become a 3rd world country, we will lose our social security, our Medicare, our voting rights, LGBTQ etc etc. How do his supporters not see this?

People can be mind controlled through propaganda. It's pretty much a fact, enough that many corporations use it via craftily made ad campaigns to get and retain customers.

Face it, humans are hackable.
