Rules:
- The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.
- Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.
- If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
- Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.
- For accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcription in the post body.
- Reposts within 1 year or the Top 100 of all time are subject to removal. Within moderator discretion, this doesn't just include reposts of the exact same media but also includes e.g. a secondary source telling basically the exact same story as another that was already posted.
- This is not exclusively a US politics community. You're encouraged to post stories about anyone from any place in the world at any point in history as long as you meet the other rules.
- All Lemmy.World Terms of Service apply.

Do they not listen to Trumps own words? Maybe that wouldn’t give away the failed real estate conman background but most of these regret articles talk about things that Trump plainly said. Then it shouldn’t take much listening to his words before you understand it’s entirely BS
no they really dont. a huge portion of trump voters dont listen to anything. they dont watch 'news'. they dont watch 'social media'. they passively accept the words they hear around them in the office, the bar, the laundromat. they are severely uninformed swimming in a sea of misinformation.
its like that old joke.. an old gold fish passes two young goldfish in a pond.. the old gold fish says 'morning boys, hows the water'.. the young goldfish look at each other and one says 'what the hell is water?'.
just because something is very obvious to you, doesnt mean it is to someone else.
