In reply to the discussion: Okay, I've just got to ask. Is anyone else really pissed that idiots voted for Trump? [View all]Vogon_Glory
(10,152 posts)I can understand (but not agree with) Hillary-hate or not liking Democrats. But what stillbothers me is that so many Trumpies set cold reason aside, set their usual suspicion that politicians are liars and crooks, ignored checking to see if Donnie was a man of his word, then voted for him even while the tides of contrary evidence were rising in September and October 2016.
This was the sort of clueless behavior I used to expect out of sub-literate, recently-decolonized third-world countries utterly lacking in literacy or experience with self-governing republican rule, NOT Americans.
And theyre still doing it! THAT continues to baffle and dismay me. I used to think most people of voting age, particularly those old enough to have been around the block, learn from their experience.
