I cannot bring myself to believe that this is real. The only way I can believe someone so eloquent of a writer would believe Trump is if they are in on it and it seems she's not a billionaire. Also, I don't think people who would vote for Trump 3 times would ever have the ability to reflect and change their view on him.
If they would be capable of that, we wouldn't be here in the first place.
100%. Rightwingers believe people who use welfare are mostly undeserving except the occasional outlier. They'd more easily accept that the dems simply won't let Trump release the Epstein list or some conspiratorial nonsense than call it the Epstein shutdown. This is a lib doing a "How do you do fellow cultists".
And all of their family members who rely on welfare are in the "outlier" group. Because they aren't like those other people. They really need it.
Or they also hate their family members. It can be pretty hard to convince these types of people that your medical conditions are actually real if they're not as visible as e.g. amputated limbs, and then they just see you as lazy failures or something.
Also, a bit too articulate for the average cultist.
The moment she expressed concern for people who weren't her, or directly related to her, was what broke the suspension of disbelief for me.
The belt got tighter and tighter until it started to hurt them personally. Then they started to reflect.
Don't doubt the human capacity for self ~~reflection~~ deception. I've met quite a few of articulate imbeciles who voted orange.
Edit: deception. Self deception. Autocorrupt got the best of me.
Kelsey Grammar, who player Frasier and the X-man Beast, is famously a Trump asslicker.
Hmmm, side show bob was famously a self aware, smart republican. Good casting
This shit is why I never use autocorrect. It's way too easy to end up saying this kind of absurd garbage, some typos and typing slightly slower can never be as bad as that. And I'm already the type who might forget a "not" and thus say the complete opposite of what I intended ...
For me it was how easily they slipped in the phrase "Epstein shutdown" that gave it away. That just seems so clearly phrased by someone who always hated Trump cosplaying as victim of a face eating leopard.
If you haven't had the "pleasure", talk to a Republican in real life. This is how they think...
I talk to them daily. This is not how they think. They didn't ever stop to think that maybe they were wrong.
