2. Decades of propaganda
Sun Nov 30, 2025, 09:35 AM

They've been told that democrats are evil socialists communists satanists globalists redistributionists gun-confiscating anti-American keep inserting bad words here dripping either scorn and condescension and you get the idea.

To the point where many people feel they have a patriotic and moral obligation to stick with Donnie and the Republican Party even if they have reservations because they've been convinced that the alternative is voting for the devil himself.

Then there's the abortion is murder crowd, who decided that the ends justify the means, and since abortion is genocide, Donnie raping or grifting or whatever is nothing compared to genocide, they'll happily support him no matter what.

There's more of this nonsense, but the bottom line is that decades of hate radio and foxnews and organized lying can do a number on people.
