His brain is even more broken than before. Watch the footage of MAGAts walking out of his rallies as he keeps repeating the same things and talking gibberish.
Just remembered one video
I hadn't seen this before, and it was generally really enlightening that these Trump supporters have genuine concerns for the working class, obvious as that should be by now. It just sucks that they've been hoodwinked into thinking that Trump is their savior from the corporate oligarchy that is clearly affecting us all. Misplaced reverence to a guy who is a mechanism in the same pro-corporate atmosphere. If only they realized that the Democrat party (flawed as it is) actually works toward their interests with policy (edit: toward improving wages, taxing the ultra rich more fairly, healthcare ideally for all, social programs, etc.), rather than attaching themselves to this "not-a-career-politician" who couldn't care less about them. Maybe not all hope is lost on trump supporters, but the cult of personality is much too strong and has been for a long time.
I mean I saw nothing impressive there, just showing that people know they're voting against their own interests and some ARE intelligent enough to know that but decide to not think about it.
Is this a video showing problems about Trump, or just problems with our whole system regardless of the "leadership"
