Too many Trump supporters know exactly what they are doing [View all]

You might still be inclined to dismiss them as stupid or brainwashed for voting for Trump in the first place, but they are not stupid in the sense that they did not realize for whom or what they were voting.

They have no problem with Russian influence, some even welcome it, if that influence strengthens the GOP and undermines the Democratic party. They have no problem dropping ACA for something less desirable if it also means the "undesirables" have an even more difficult time affording health insurance. Intimidation? Voter suppression? Deportation? Again, no problem if it only affects "those people."

Some would not even mind if Trump resigned or were impeached, because he does not say much about God and Jesus, whereas a President Pence would certainly try his hardest to make this the Christian States of America.
