What this British fellow fails to understand is that here in America, Trump supporters:

• • Think it’s great that Trump’s cabinet is full for Fox News “journalists” and that we’ve renamed a federal government department without the approval of congress,
  • Don’t know that the war in Iran is illegal, i.e., that it’s a collection of war crimes,
  • Don’t understand that costs, financially and militarily, of waging the war, and
  • Believe that either we’ve won the war or that it’s going smoothly under Trump’s excellent supervision.

Their standard of truth is: If Trump says it, it’s true. If it’s unflattering to Trump, it’s a lie, cooked up by a radical left communist who hates America.  Critical thinking is for woke sissies.

U.S. Department of War Loses its First and Only War

Without doubt, stupidity is part of Trumpism, but it’s only a part.

Meanness is also essential.  People with any real compassion for others don’t have what it takes to be a member of the MAGA base.

Impressive Levels of Stupidity

As Aristotle said (plus or minus): Only people who do not seek power and qualified to hold it.

In retrospect, the United States hadn’t gotten burned too badly until Donald Trump came along.
