Cry Me a Fuckin' River [View all]

I've been hearing/reading lately about how the MAGAts are having a hard time accepting what is now irrefutable evidence of Trump's crimes, because it means admitting that they were conned, played, lied to, and ultimately duped.

I don't dispute that analysis for a second. How can you not feel like a fool, once you recognize just how completely you were taken in?

That being said, I have zero sympathy for any of these people - and if they have to "go through some stuff" as reality sets in, it's not like they didn't bring it upon themselves.

They heard the lies - and ignored them. They saw the blatant racism - and embraced it. They witnessed the deliberate cruelty - and they cheered it. They heard the calls to violence - and they heeded the call.

Yes, Trump is a con-artist. But a conman's greatest skill is recognizing his "marks" - people he doesn't need to talk into doing his bidding, but people who talk themselves into doing exactly what he wants them to do.

Being an easily-manipulated idiot isn't a crime punishable by law, but it does have consequences - like having to accept that you've been had by the corrupt, pussy-grabbing, violence-promoting, nation-dividing, traitor who you chose to support.

I have no sympathy - I have no there, there, you poor dears. I have no fucks to give for the Dearly Deluded who gave their all to a self-serving grifter who convinced them to abandon all morals, all ethics, all empathy for their fellow human beings in order to line his own pockets while destroying our democracy.

There's something to be said for the poor folk who are now dealing with the truth - and what needs to be said is a hearty, well-intentioned, Fuck you, you God-damned idiots!
