I wrote a longer comment, but to be honest, it all boils down to "Trump is insane."
And 77 million Americans that voted for him are either idiots or insane.

Trump agrees with the last person he spoke with

I believe the number is roughly closer to 160 million. I don’t blame the trump voters, stupid is gonna stupid, but the non-voters…. 245 million registers voters, 155M voted.

From the song Freewill by Rush, “If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice.”

Edit: Me no math good, so that might not add up exactly, but the point remains.

Yes if they didn't try to prevent Trump, they are part of the problem. Except of course if they had a valid reason the were prevented.

Everyone imagines they have a valid reason.

[–] pupbiru@aussie.zone 3 points 3 months ago

there’s lots of blame to go around, but you can’t on 1 hand blame apathetic voters and on the other hand NOT blame active trump voters just for stupidity… stupidity may not be a crime, but it also isn’t an excuse

It's okay, I just say TACO until I calm down

[–] Buffalox@lemmy.world 10 points 3 months ago

Yes this was totally TACO. Such a well deserved nick name.

[–] thermal_shock@lemmy.world 10 points 3 months ago

They thought he was going to make the brown people disappear and they voted with their hatred.

That's what it boils down too.

ANY trump insignia to me says "I support rape, child rape, hatred towards anyone I can't extort money from and anyone not white." And I avoid them like the plague they are.

Insane and evil. Don't forget that last part. He's a pedophile, he caused hundreds of thousands of preventable deaths, he backs genocidal governments, he steals from his own charities, and I could go on for a long, long time...
