To be anecdotally fair, most of my family who voted for trump out of ideology have become disillusioned with him. Of course, that probably wont stop them from voting while pinching their nose along with the rest of his voters.

If Clinton had won then the guy would have followed the electoral mandate and been less racist. Since Trump won he is obligated to be more racist. That's just how it works. Listen, he doesn't make the rules, he just follows them.

My dad's not quite fully disillusioned with him, but he definitely is getting frustrated with how stupid he is. Like, he still agrees with a lot of what he says, but I think Trump being so openly and obviously dumb that it's starting to make him seem dumb too.

How the gently caress did he miss how dumb Trump is? He was dumb as gently caress before he was elected.

He does seem dumb for supporting Trump.

A bunch of my uncles voted for Trump knowing he was an idiot liar. They just didn't want Hillary in office so voted against her. I think a lot of people were actually voting against the other candidate moreso than for theirs.

Wow, Nat Geo is so loving out of the loop it's insane. It's the exact opposite problem: the parks are being absolutely overrun and destroyed by people who just want to copy photos they saw on Instagram. Locations with parking are so overrun that cars are parked along roadways and highways for miles because there's so many people all wanting to see what they saw I'm social media. There's a movement now for people to stop geotagging their selfies and shots because everything is getting ruined from the increased traffic over the past couple of years. I live right on Banff National Park's doorstep and the increase in the sheer number of people in the last few years is indescribable. And it's not just tourists, there's way more locals getting out too thanks to social media. The trails are a poo poo show. There's so much garbage everywhere. Meadows are trampled. People are cutting down saplings so they can get a cool looking walking stick. Trails I used to do that I rarely saw a soul on are now packed from dawn to dusk.

Plenty of the people supporting trump don't actually care about reality, they just care that there is an angry man telling them that he will help them and that they should trust him because he is very good at his job and if anyone says otherwise then they are liars and you should only believe him and his good words. They don't give a gently caress about facts. Facts are just inconveniences and are fake and the only truth is what comes out of his mouth. It doesn't matter how lovely of a person or how stupid of a businessman he was before hand, it doesn't matter just how many times he tried and failed at various different business ventures, it only matters to them that he will spout catchphrases and reassure them that facts are fake and lies are truth. You can't approach them by thinking logically because everything about them is inherently illogical. They willingly allow themselves to act as if they are in this entirely fictional reality that they've created.

Look, proofreading isn't my strong suit, but I am for sure at least a little of the smart more than my dad. I actually probably would be just as dumb and bigoted as my dad if I had registered to vote when I was 18 and kept to party lines, because the stuff he says makes sense to a sheltered white Catholic school kid with no frame of reference for anything. I'm definitely dumb by nature, but the nurtured dumb never took hold I guess.

Especially because She-Hulk is the best hulk because she doesn't give a gently caress. She's probably the only person who could tell the Hulk off when he went on his tirades about hating puny Banner, and he'd probably listen. She'd just twist his arm behind his back and be all "Hey, that's my cousin your badmouthing!"

My beloved coworker said she'd vote for Trump again. She works at a goddamned pharmacy as a basic retail clerk.I love her, but she voting against her own self interest. She's even bisexual. I just. I love her so much, but goddammit. She's so naive. She was surprised when the local klan was using his slogans. What the gently caress is wrong with southerners?
