It defies reason, doesn’t it! But there are always suckers left holding the bag when reality sets it. Trumpism, like other forms of fascism, is a kind of mass insanity. He somehow convinced 75M rubes to vote for him when his disastrous first term was already in the history books. Maybe it’s not surprising that when Trump puts commerce secretary Lutnick on TV to tell his followers to buy tesla, they listen. At some point, though, they will wake up. I hope it doesn’t take a world war this time.
