President Donald Trump spoke before an adoring crowd in Tennessee Saturday, telling his fans, “I could say the stupidest things and you’d clap.”

    The really weird bit comes after that statement, where he starts listing things like “tax cuts” as “common sense”, but then just starts babbling a random string of numbers.

    Just like the time he said “I don’t care about you, I only care about your vote.”

    They are hopeless. Beyond fucking stupid. And what’s funny is Dump knows it. He knows no intelligent person likes him— and that pisses him off because he really wants their respect.

    Ha ha loser.

      I can see there being a large number of seemingly intelligent people with enough self-awareness to know that Trump gives no shits about them, but they are still totally fine with him because they are a bad person in some other way. I could see it being because they are both “alphas” and “game respect game,” and/or because (they think) he will produce some result they want.

      Conservatives can be very “ends justify the means” which is why fascism is such a natural evolution. Hell even forgetting what I said about alpha douches… There are tired old ladies all over this country who would agree that Trump world not piss on them if they were on fire, but it is still an overwhelmingly good thing that he is president because Roe got overturned. I was born into a white catholic family, so I’m pretty sure I’m related to some.

      Think of how stupid the average conservative is, then remember: half of them are stupider than that.

        actualy just statistical error. MAGA Georg, who is part of MENSA but bought a red hat by mistake and has an IQ of 175, is an outlier adn should not have been counted.

    Sometimes I think he hates his supporters more than progressives, leftists, unionists, and bipoc people.

    I don’t know if that’s certifiable, but my gosh does he DESPISE his own people.

      He does. They’re not rich, they can’t do anything for him other than vote. Trump doesn’t involve himself with anyone who can’t give him something.

      If they were outside his place asking for anything he’d be the first to call security to get the “undesirables” out.

      Because those unwashed masses cling to him, want to be near him. He can’t stand them because he thinks he’s the smartest person in the room and everyone around him is stupid. He’s classist AF.

    I mean, he already does. They’re idiots, they’ll clap for anything said by anyone as long as they know someone they irrationally hate will suffer.
