Anecdata from me today: I've hired 2 older white dude contractors to help me get my house ready to sell, their conversation is all about the hearings and how trump never should have been POTUS in the first place (though one of the guys voted for him) and that trump is a huge liar. They are expressing concern about mail-in voting though, shame.

LMAO, it was literally created because someone who was going to give a lecture to students bailed and the organizer had to come up with something else for students to do.

It was 1897, so it was probably either design a flag for a religion or go back to work in a factory that's designed to be a deathtrap and assembles products that are also deathtraps.

I really don't think this is true, Trump is a completely delusional lunatic and I'd bet good money he honestly and truly still believes the election was somehow stolen from him

Nah, he has always known that he's an old, obese, ugly fraud. If he's truly delusional about himself he wouldn't be sporting that weird hairdo, he wouldn't have been wearing lifts and ordering his doctor to say that he's not obese, he wouldn't have a print out of the 2016 election on his desk. He wouldn't be doing any of the things that he's done to hide his true self.

He's delusional about his ability fool people, sure, but then again he's still fooling 40% of the US population.

Just about every conundrum that's come up over the past ... what, six years (lol), triggers the question in my mind of "is X person LYING or DELUSIONAL"? Like, it's got to be one or the other.

Either they understand that they're wrong and they're trying to fool everyone else, or they don't even realize they're wrong in the first place. And every single time it comes up it's all but impossible to discern. Whether it's Trump, or some Senator, or some Fox talking head, or some chud on the street, it's like they're all doing some super method performance where they have to maintain perfect kayfabe that keeps an outside observer in the dark as to whether they're a true believer or just a grifter.

It drives me batty every single day and that may be the single biggest source of stress for me about ~all this~, like, what does this mean about all the human beings around me and in positions of power? Is that huge a percentage of people evil, or is that huge a percentage of people stupid? Cuz I have to react differently to the world depending on which it is

He has a bunch of staff telling him he lost. He doesn’t like that, so then he finds a bunch of weirdos who will tell him he won, but it was stolen from him. He doesn’t have to look far (Giuliani, Stone), and he much prefers what they’re telling him.

Like I can imagine a lawyer literally saying, “well, yes, his campaign staff and White House staff told him he lost, but then he had all these highly regarded lawyers like John Eastman, Sidney Powell, and Rudy Giuliani telling him he actually won, so who’s to say who’s actually right?”

It’s one thing if it’s buyer’s remorse (like a person in particular is presidential themselves and somehow never watches the news, thinks they’re voting for a bog-standard war criminal like Bush) but to have the balls to say they *always* distrusted him is uhhhhhh

I'm old enough now to remember Trump even before that. Not sure how old most people in this thread are, but I see a lot of reference to Trump having been just some phony businessman television game show host and it stops at that. That's obviously true but long before that he was just a guy everybody knew from sleazy gossip supermarket tabloids as just some rear end in a top hat who perpetually cheated on his wives and hosed up all of his businesses. His fame before The Apprentice was, quite literally, generated when people stood in line at the supermarket checkout and saw his face on the cover of whatever they put next to Weekly World News and the headline was akin to 'LOOK AT THIS ABSOLUTE loving rear end in a top hat, DONALD TRUMP! NO, FOR REAL, CHECK OUT THIS SLEAZY, MISOGYNISTIC, BACKSTABBING loving ABSOLUTE GODDAMNED poo poo STUPID CONNIVING rear end in a top hat! HE CHEATED ON HIS WIFE AGAIN AND FILED FOR BANKRUPTCY LIKE 8 TIMES IN THE LAST 3 WEEKS! LOL, JUST gently caress THIS GUY. WHAT AN rear end in a top hat! WOW, JUST WOW! SERIOUSLY, JUST gently caress THIS GUY FOREVER!'.

I always maintain that the biggest problem with Trump isn't so much that he exists. It's the scum that actually voted for him. Our society has had decades of "Do not trust this slimy rear end in a top hat Donald Trump" emblazoned everywhere, and people still saw him run for President and said "Yup!".

Sorry, that's a lot of words to just say gently caress all Republicans.

It's a law written and passed in haste, in response to a specific incident, by people who don't know poo poo about body armour. What did you expect?

You see the same thing with gun legislations too. The problem is that the people who are most keen to pass gun control laws are often the people who know the least about guns.
