13. Trump calls his voters stupid right to their face -- no Democrats do. If so, when, who, what did they say?

Are they talking about a sentence taken out of context that people cry about like babies for the rest of their lives because they won't look it up? They'll ruin their lives because they're so passionate and steadfast in their religious belief that Democrats are mean to them personally -- their family and community don't matter -- only their imaginary hurt feelings that they are told to have?

Carter, Clinton, Obama, Hillary, Biden, Harris: all wealthy upper class 1% out-of-touch coastal elites who have no idea what economic and social inequality is. Oh wait! Bullshit! But yeah, don't vote for Democrats because of some vague passive-aggressive propaganda you heard somewhere.
