    The folks with brains voted blue. The dumbasses voted for Trump.

    It’s a mystery why politics is so polarized these days…

    Trump is terrible, but many people voted for him because they saw something in him that they wanted or needed. It was most likely based on lies but it’s what they needed. Any alternative, if it hopes to win, must address the same needs.

      Maybe if Democrats didn’t keep lying to us about our material conditions the last 4 years and telling us we are not struggling, the public wouldn’t have to look somewhere else.

      Nah dog they voted for trump because team sports. He is their tiny brains highschool football team. The pastor wouldn’t let them go to prom if trump didn’t win. Also no amount of reaching across the aisle will win one vote, they literally vote against their best interests because it feels good.
