40%

To me, that’s the real issue. I’ve heard of and yearn for these situations where a population overthrows a corrupt government. But SO much of America is brain damaged enough that they intentionally, willingly, without a gun to their head, voted for this and believes it to be okay.

There is a heavy propaganda machine affecting them as well as a deep religious institution. We don’t even see much of it often on international media. Even then, while it can move the needle, it also points to a sizable percentage of that 40% not being ignorant or scared of Kamala, but openly Evil as well as stupid. Even when Trump says the most insane shit, they’re still worried that a Democrat will burst into their home with a loaded Immigrant and kill them all.
