How anyone sees this man as anything other than a lumpy pile of orange shit is baffling.
He's a poor man's vision of a rich man, an ignorant man's vision of a smart man, and a weak man's vision of a strong man.
Even a blind man can smell this leprotic turd a mile off.
It's simple: he spoke to an undercurrent of emotional resentment that a lot of people had and gave them permission to feel like they were good people (or at least not bad people) for feeling that way. Every seemingly logical explanation that the right twists into place in hindsight is only a justification for that gut reaction.
They want to feel good for having xenophobic, nationalist feelings. He gave them permission and said they were the good guys and everyone who disagrees is wrong. They only care about the facts that back up that perspective, everything else is conveniently discarded to defend their collective ego. 45's narcissism helps him win this crowd because he's been ignoring all inconvenient facts his whole life, and whenever that habit catches up with him he always has a scapegoat or 12 ready to go.
Well written, I wonder what caused that emotional resentment?
My guess would be cancel culture, I believe his supporters only like him because progressive people hate him.
the emotional resentment comes from the perpetual victim mentality. the only way their way of life works is if they are constantly under attack by a villain of the week thats simultaneously incompetent and feeble but also sadistic and near unstoppable.
Yeah I guess there's also underlying issues of feeling lost and insignificant in a complex world. Add to that economic struggle and a lacking class awareness and cognitive dissonance does the rest.
Probably has something to do with racism and the election of a black president.
