I would say it’s largely disinformation campaigns that focus on poorly educated Americans.
You won’t find Europeans who believe that climate change is a hoax or that COVID-19 was planned and implemented by some government.
In the same vein, you won’t find Europeans voting for obvious conmen like Trump. People who grow up learning three languages, reading Aristotle, and playing classical piano are immune from the bullcrap that affects us here in the U.S.
A couple of facts, for those who still put a value of the truth:
Trump has had little to nothing to do with work requirements and government sponsored supplemental nutrition, and
More Trump voters every day are regretting their choices.
Good question John. Thanks for asking. A partial answer lies below.
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.
