alt Hacker NewsIt turns out when the other party runs on “we’re smarter and have better ideas than you and 25% of you are deplorable”, that people tend to increase their support for their current party rather than deciding “you know what? They’re right; we should switch to follow those coastal elites…”

Hypocrisy - Trump and the GOP regularly call _half_ the country a whole fucking barrage of terms (pedophiles, rapists, marxist socialist communist fascists, evil, ungodly, sick, etc) on a regular fucking basis. Gaslight. Obstruct. Project.

I’ve been all around the world. Only in America do people insist on doing evil things and still want to be praised for it.
It’s the stupid brand of evil too, like killing millions AND pissing away trillions of dollars in useless Middle East wars (god forbid you say anything against American foreign policy). Or ICE destroying lives AND hurting your own economy. It’s not like republican states are the richest! But the poorer they get the angrier and more dug-in they get.
