I agree…but I strongly believed Trump would win in 2024 because I’ve been actively lowering my expectations for the US voting public since 2016. They always are worse than I expect, and even when I expect them to be worse, they are worse still.
What I’ve learned is that people are really really not good at a) remembering the experience of suffering accurately (rosy retrospection is a real psychological handicap for our species), b) logically weighing the pros and cons of possible catastrophe, and c) spotting obvious con men and liars.
People like my mom who wanted to forget and looked at the past through rose tinted glasses. Before the election she said she didn’t support Trump anymore. But now she’s fully on board again.
One thing I miss the most from the Biden era is we didn’t hear from this piece of human garbage doing shit like that every day.
Ironically, that’s part of what got him reelected. People forgot about how annoying he was.
How can you forget? I didn’t. I’m not that good at remembering shit

I believe that many view Trump as one of those comics in the newspaper funnies.
