14. The problem?

The MAGA crowd doesn't care about global conditions or problems or how it affects the American economy. Most don't understand or even believe it. We're the 'exceptional' country capable of rising above it all. Or at least we were before globalization materialized linking us to the rest of the world, a world filled with the blacks and browns and hoity-toity Europeans, all the foreigners reducing America (USA,USA) to their level.

It's America First in all things, all perceptions. If only we could travel back to that Golden Era (circa 1950) everything would be peachy-keen bc men were men, women knew their place and minorities were ripe for exploitation, firmly under the heel of the white Christian ruling class.

It's all about the distorted perception the GOP and their billionaire donors have skillfully whipped up. However, it's really about power and money and influence. The average MAGA voter is simply a willing, often ignorant, grievance-laden stepping stone to reach the ultimate level of autocratic control.

Yes, the MAGAs will be worse off under Republican/Trumpist rule. But they'll smile, feel a warm glow within bc they've won, they've owned the libs and can strut around as rugged, gun-toting individualists in a dog eat dog, only the strong survive world, the way God intended.

The deluded world we're living in!
