Can we now state that MAGA is just plain stupid??

[kentuck]

They have no idea what is happening. They don't know their asses from a hole in the ground. If there was any doubt, it has all been removed. They pretend to not see what is happening around them or else, they choose not to see. Either way, they are stupid.

[Ping Tung]

1. Plain stupid? No. Monumentally stupid. Yes.

[some_of_us_are_sane]

2. Indeed

"In politics stupidity is not a handicap."

~Napoleon Bonaparte

(In governance, now there's where intelligence comes into play.)

[paleotn]

8. Yep. The double edged sword of politics in a democracy....

Getting elected is many times a shallow, popularity contest. Actually governing is a whole different skill set. Most politicians don't possess both sets.

3. It'll only hapen to you...

They'll prosper

[BannonsLiver]

4. I've been stating it for a decade now.

[hamsterjill]

12. Me, too.

They are all idiots.

[Groundhawg]

5. We always could.

[NewHendoLib]

6. Stupid, ignorant, and various dashes of evil.

[dgauss]

7. The politicians are in sync with their base. It works for them.

[BeerBarrelPolka]

9. Now???

[paleotn]

10. It's not like the brightest people are attracted to that cause.

Or attracted to Republicans in general. Education attainment is a good predictor for how someone will vote. Intelligence in general works too, perhaps even better. It's a well studied subject.

21. and don't forget the enlarged amygdala of the these people...

makes them have two reactions... flee for fight. The actual prospect of critical thinking is beyond them because they're all emotions, thanks to their brain structures.

[SSJVegeta]

11. I prefer misled and ignorant

Which "stupid" is a fitting synonym for.

Yet in contrast to the other words, is a bit more permanent. And most things -well I should say: everything is impermanent.

[LilElf70]

13. toopid is as toopid does

There's really no other answer. The toopid is real strong. It's been building for years.

[Joinfortmill]

14. We can! We should! We must!

[catbyte]

15. I prefer to call it willful ignorance, which is worse than stupidity.

But I agree with your sentiment.

[OMGWTF]

16. Dunning-Kruger Stupid -- too stupid to know they are stupid.

I met a guy yesterday as we were leaving our local No Kings rally who didn't understand why everyone was so mad at T💩p. My husband and I tried to explain but gave up after 30 seconds because this mofo was either willfully ignorant or genuinely stupid.

[ananda]

17. We've all been now stating this since 2016.

Yep

[MontanaMama]

18. So so so stupid.

Paralyzingly stupid.

[Wounded Bear]

19. Willful ignorance is a terrible thing...nt

[at140]

20. How the heck buffoon Trump got elected

Over senator Kamala Harris I will never understand.

[niyad]

24. Vice President Kamala Harris.

[azureblue]

22. the no kings demonstrations

have driven them out of their minds.Their posts today are nothing but insane level name calling, and attempts at intimidation. The know they are way outnumbered, and outnumbered by people who are tired of Trump's crap and are doing something about it. But, since they have no one to tell them what to say, they are floundering in fits of anger.


Good

[lostnfound]

23. Desperately seeking simple solution to world they don't understand. And selfish. Nt
