    MAGoo logic.

    “We like Trump because he says what he means and means what he says…”

    “You can’t take Trump literally, but you have to take him seriously.”

        Say what you will about the guy, but he sure knows his constituency.

        “Are you subject to mass indoctrination? Vote for me! I’ll do all the things you want and end all the things you don’t.”

          In 2016 he said “I will make all your dreams come true.”

            People like to think that humans as a whole are intelligent.

            The reality is about 80% of us are barely above a dog in intelligence meanwhile the other 20% are desperately holding the other 80% on their shoulders because empathy is a thing for them.

              Read “The Marching Morons” by C. M. Kornbluth. The novella that "Idiocracy’ was based on. Much darker than the movie. Much, much darker.

      There was a Jordan Klepper interview with MAGAhats and, I kid you not, someone said a version of this. One sentence after the other.

      The cognitive dissonance was just unbelievable.
