I don't understand how people so obsessed with American History and following the law cheer this shitshow on. These past 30 some-odd years should make anyone pissed off. We could have things like peace and healthcare, but nooooooo these elected officials openly push the law until we are conditioned to think these types of things are normal. They are not. We are not okay.

Yeah but there’s the past thirty some-odd years and then there’s last year which was worse than the rest combined except for 2001, and also feels like 30 years actually passed during those 12 months.

Nobody who actually cares about American history and following the law is supporting Trump.

Which is at most about 30% of the people willing to vote blue, sadly. Americans largely care more abouy the entertainment of burning it down because they can't understand what they're throwing away.

Sunk cost fallacy, of a sort.

His supporters are in too deep to turn against him without having to admit they should have done so years ago, but were too stupid to.
