This is some of the most ignorant shit going. Honestly man, is this really what you think of Trump voters? You seem to think that Trump won because he appealed to simple-minded ignorant people, and that there are simply more of them than there are enlightened and informed Clinton voters. You're out of your god damned mind. That snobby superiority is why whoever the dems put up in 2020 will get demolished.

Repubs wanted to counter the marxist social policies and identity politics ideology that the left was pushing, particularly under Obama. To do that, they put up Mitt fucking Romney and somehow they turned him into tax-cheating Hitler. Obama had a record of abysmal economic growth, ridiculous government spending, and rampant worldwide terrorism, and he beat a choir boy in a landslide.

What do you think the republicans should have done about that? Run Jeb Bush? Are you high?

You seem to think that Trump supporters see him as 'the messiah'. That's insane!! That's leftist propaganda to make you feel contempt at Trump voters and moral superiority at supporting democrats. You're not thinking man.

Trump isn't the messiah....HE'S THE MURDER WEAPON

We know he's a sexual deviant. We don't care. We know he's got no political experience. We don't care. We know he's not an eloquent, gentlemanly statesman. We don't care.

We are sick and tired of of being called "deplorable" because we believe in borders and gun rights. We don't want this country governed by socialists tyrants. We're sick of rights being diminished in the name of "equality". We're sick of postmodern idealogues trying to lay all of the suffering caused by inequality at the feet of western capitalism. The solution to that was Mitt Romney. But he bullied a gay guy once in the fifties, so America stuck with the black guy instead.

So fine. Ok leftists, you turned Mitt Romney into tax cheating Hitler, here's our counter move. How about a guy with massive noteriety, and enough money to not be dependent or beholden to anyone. How about a guy who's already so filthy, you can't sling mud at him. How about we just decide we don't give a shit about adultery, and profanity, and temperment. How about we just decide that nothing terrible will probably happen and we run with the guy who just says the stuff that middle-class America thinks.

Middle class america thinks "sheesh, why can't they just build a wall and keep this fucking heroin outta here?". So Trump says "Fuck it, yeah, build a wall. Why not?". Middle class america thinks "These newspapers and TV shows seem to have a partisan bias". So Trump says "You're right, that's fake news". Middle class america thinks "I don't like the way the government is spending my tax money". So Trump says "You're right, they're blowing it, here's some back". Middle class america thinks "These ISIS guys are scary". So Trump says "Oh you say I can push a button and they all die? Yeah, give me the button".

And frankly, that gamble couldn't be paying off any better. Name one objectively terrible thing that's happened as a result of Trump's presidency?

And the more the left doubles down on the "racist", "misogynist", "fascist", "stupid" narrative, the more sure it becomes that Trump crushes it in 2020.

If the left doesn't want that to happen they need to admit that they've gone too fucking far. They need to back off the identity politics and post modern social bullshit so that the reasonable left can rise again and get back to representing the legitimate concerns of the working class.

If that doesn't happen, then set your DVR's for November 2024 when Rachel Maddow claws out her own eyeballs on live TV after announcing the victory of President Elect Hannity.
