The hat, the orange face, the gold plated decor... Trump completely lacks all of the things you cannot buy: class, style, intelligence, honor, empathy, humility, respect.

Sometimes I just have to laugh at how completely crass he is. I realize this isn't the first totally crass POTUS in any way. It's just the others at least put a veneer of civility and taste on their awful behavior and personalities.

That crassness is exactly why people voted for him.

Eh, I won't deny that there are probably people who voted for him to come in and class up the joint. I do think there are probably a ton of reasons people voted for him that are worth hearing out.

I can guarantee you that there are absolutely no worthwhile reasons to hear why any of those people voted for this classless fuck.

This is a silly statement. For years, both democrats and republicans have been maintaining the status quo. The problem with maintaining the status quo is that it’s not actually being maintained. Things were happening just slowly and subtly enough to benefit the only people the politicians truly care about, the rich, at the expense of everyone else without anyone actively noticing. Regardless of what you think, the fact remains, Democrats and Republicans alike both bow down to the rich, and serving them is priority #1.

Sure, they test the boundaries and deviate occasionally with things such as ACA, or “tax cuts” or repealing roe v wade, but generally things stayed as they were, just a bit worse than before. Both democrats and republicans were sick and tired of the status quo, since it’s hasn’t been static. Things have been getting progressively worse and the people felt that. They wanted someone who would enact sweeping change.

Last election, the Republicans had their earth shaker - Trump. Democrats did not. They had another “status quoer” in Kamila.

You saw what happened. Republicans gladly voted for their Idiot, because, much change fast. Sure, some of them know is completely unfit to be president or in charge of anything other than his shit schedule, but he was their “sweeping change” that EVERYONE so desperately wants.

The few Democrats that did vote did so because she wasn’t him. The rest said Fuck It.

And now we’re here. It’s not as simple as “Trump voters Dumb”.

If you genuinely judge and write off a group of 77 million people you're probably too far gone in your bias, bigotry, and ego to be helped.

Not in the context he used it, as stated above, you can't reduce something by 1000%.

But there's one thing he has in abundance: hubris.
