Trump voters also include people who willingly bought the hate Hillary campaign. They chose to believe the bilge pumped out by Faux News, Breitbart and other wingnut outlets
It does have a North Korean kind of vibe to it, no? Dance, bitches, dance!
No, this isn’t a switch out where people thought Trump was this wonderful, glorious person who was going to help people. Trump was always very clear about who he was and what he was after, as has Pence been.
For the expert level fuckwits who keep commenting on this, saying stupid shit like “they can quit” and “contracts!” You are missing the point.

I guarantee millions who voted for Trump did so as some kind of…
Right. I sort of don’t like casting Trump supporters as naive. You had to be willfully ignorant to not get the agenda Trump and Co. were pushing. You had to cling to your stupidity with tenacity, basically putting your hands over your ears and screaming “nah nah nah, I can’t hear you” while the rest of us desperately…
