Would argue Trumpanzees are dumber for believing his bullshit. 

It's the biggest mystery for me. Like I know otherwise smart and good people who have voted for him three times. But pick any random 30 seconds of him talking, and you're like "Oh yeah, he's a conman. Just completely full of shit, and completely ignorant, in addition to being an objectively horrible person". He should have been laughed off the stage in his first debate in 2016, and that would have been the end of it. "Who the hell would vote for this guy to be president??". But nope.

Which would suggest that the people you know are not, in fact, either smart or good.

Trust me, I think a lot about it. It sucks. Family I've known my entire life. Friends I've had since elementary school. To say this has complicated my relationships with these people would be a huge understatement.

But yeah, remove politics from the equation, and they're great people.

 But you can’t remove politics from it. Somebody who would support causing this much suffering is not a good person.

They’re great people to you.

But they’re bad people.

It’s something we all have to deal with. My brother-in-law is a guy whose company I enjoy. He’s been good to me. But knowing his politics and listening to what he has to say about various out groups and the joy he takes in Trump hurting them—he’s a bad person.  And I very frankly don’t want to be around him.

So with this tax and spending package being pushed through...

 

And I'm not a spending is bad, especially when it's investments in our infrastructure, science, education, etc., or we haaaave to get the deficit down NOW kind of person. But I don't EVER want to hear from a Republican about how they're the fiscally responsible party.

Just read that that Fat Boy’s bill calls for no president to ever have the power to forgive student loans.

To you. They’re hiding from you the darkness inside their hearts. They don’t see you as the other so you don’t see it.

I think they are exactly the type of people who will turn in GOLL once Trump’s SS wants to know who’s loyal.

They have no problems with pain happening to the others.   But once the others are gone, GOLL may become a target as ‘other-lite’.  Not brown-ish, but still an enemy of the people.

Turning in friends and relatives might be the line in the sand for some folks, but with MAGA, banking on that would be a fool’s bet.

This. It’s literally the way it ALWAYS goes with authoritarian regimes, which are almost always built on unifying and consolidating power on a foundation of demonizing the “other.”
They purge the initial “other.” But they still need an enemy. So they expand the definition of “other.” Again, and again. Eventually including people in former in-groups, even former regime insiders.
Idiots think the regime will never come for them. And time after time, they are wrong.

Great opportunity to post this RtJ number... 

"Hungry for truth but you got screwed and drank the Kool-Aid, there's a line

It end directly at the edge of a mass grave, that's their design

Funny fact about a cage, they're never built for just one group

So when that cage is done with them and you're still poor, it come for you

The newest lowest on the totem, well golly gee, you have been used

You helped to fuel the death machine that down the line will kill you too (oops)"

Also includes one my favorite lines of the past few years... 

"Never forget in the story of Jesus, the hero was killed by the state"
