Careercow Donald J Trump - 45th/47th President of the USA, convicted felon, Epstein bro, Putin simp, serial liar, sore loser, cheat and the Chris-Chan of Presidents. THIS IS NOT A POLITICAL DEBATE THREAD.

I still have a really hard time understanding the infatuation so many people have with Trump. Is the status of persecution really so powerful that consistent records of extreme litigious history, megalomania, poor financial decisions, sexual transgressions, and elite privilege means nothing? Especially when all of that occurred before his presidency? I know I'm preaching to the choir but I simply don't know how he holds so many supporters captivated with his very being. I can understand why the Republican establishment continues to support him, as investments, blackmail, and borrowed power goes along way for U.S politicians. Yet outside of one of the most successful propaganda campaigns to exist, in which it has triumphed upon willful ignorance, I don't see why so many people gunt guard him.
It’s because they’re incredibly stupid. They can’t ever defend Trump, which is why they deflect. They know the emperor has no clothes but they’re too stupid and willful to admit they were duped so they double down. I mean, people have lost lives and livelihood because of this orange buffoon, yet they keep coming back for more.

It would be interesting to check how many of his supporters were alive back when there was lead in the paint and in gasoline. Also, how many of them are from Flint, Michigan & other places where the pipes were of subpar quality and they drank lead with the water...

Part of his platform would be to abolish the EPA so I am sure that stuff will be coming back

I had a hard time understanding it for awhile, The heart of it is to drop any notion of rationality or consistency. His entire movement is based on being a vibe session. Its all emotional and fluid about what makes people feel good in this group at the moment. His use of vague terms and enemies allow people to project their own grievances onto what he is saying and form those in group connections with other people in the movement.

Feeling like they are sticking it to the people they blame for all of life's woes and being part of a community/movement is all that matters. Anything Trump does is irrelevant as long as his supporters still feel good.

Wikipedia actually has a good section on the psychology of it all on the Trumpism page.

I would say a lot. most of his fan based are in their 50s or above (since younger people usually more liberal). since lead paint was "officially" banned in the late 1960s and lead in gas was banned sometime in the 70s, I would say most of them have been exposed to high levels of lead during their development. hell, the government is finally spending money on replacing lead pipes (which his supporters are upset about). I swear these people love poison.

They like that he isn't a pod person. When opponents complain, "Oh, I hate how he and his supporters have genuine human emotions!" that's a pretty good indicator of it.

What, republicans are actually upset over not getting heavy metal poisoning anymore?
Trump wearing diapers has made it so that MAGA tards think diapers are manly, so yeah, pretty much.

I know you're a newfag, but it's a bannable offense to come into a lolcow thread and throw a tantrum that people are making fun of a lolcow. This also applies to the obese, elderly conman who you want to have sex with
