I've thought about this issue a few times. I wondered, how is it possible that such a large group of people could be so misinformed or evil?
Over the past couple weeks, I've been listening to a lot of near-death experience testimonies. The NDE testimonies were like a missing puzzle piece, although many questions remain.
My current theory is that we were all placed on this planet to learn specific lessons and grow. The world is filled with people who vary in their spiritual/soul development.
I think many people who naturally identify with Democrats and/or the American left are on a more advanced journey (referring to people who naturally align with looking out for others as opposed to being selfish). Our journey isn't filled with hate and fear: we passed that level a long time ago, likely in a previous life.
Our mission now, among other things, is to take in knowledge (education) and be compassionate / less judgemental towards people who are not evolved.
The "less judgmental" epiphany really struck me because I have a lot of negative feelings / contempt towards tRump and his magasses. Actually, with trump it is hatred. I can't deny that.
It's interesting because I usually get so pissed when an elected Democrat doesn't seem angry enough or doesn't seem to hate tRump the way I do, but now that I'm rethinking everything, it could be that they're more evolved than I am--maybe they know tRump is a piece of shit but at the same time, they're not succumbing to toxic thoughts, perhaps?
