    He is, and they are.

    But they’re also conspiracy theorists, and trump controls all aspects of the government.

    There’s no “deep state” left to blame, and they love hating the establishment more than they love trump or anyone else.

    He’s not going to get them to stop caring about this. And he’s not going to react well to them not doing what he wants

          Did we mention his supporters are unbelievably stupid?

          They want someone to ‘drain the swamp’ of corruption: they choose the guy who worked a lot with the mob in New York, and showers dictators with praise, while breaking the Constitution’s emoluments clause and repeatedly committing open corruption.

          They want someone to get to the bottom of the child abuse scandal surrounding Epstein: they choose his literal best friend who has been credibly accused of rape by multiple parties.

          They want a Christian to lead the country to rebuild on the faith: they choose a three time adulterer who cheated on his current wife with a porn star and made payments to keep her quiet.

          This is just the tip of the iceberg and it’s all public knowledge.

          They are dumb as rocks.

          They have no problem being inconsistent.

          They’re convinced Democrats were drinking the blood of babies but have ignored Trump’s Epstein friendship, his comments about young girls and his own daughter, as well as a recording of him bragging about sexually assaulting women since the first election. They have no problem dismissing things that would otherwise confirm a Democrat would have been better.

      If you’re going to rely on conspiracy theorists seeking to expose deep state pedophiles to sweep you into power, don’t be a deep state pedophile. You’d think this should be obvious, but apparently not.

      That’s the neat thing, though, since the “deep state” doesn’t actually exist, it can be whatever you need it to be. Control all the government? The “deep state” is a secret unelected shadow government of liberal activist judges, state and city communist-socialists, and paid George Soros false flag BLM DEI protest rioters.

      I think its more about fox media and other republicans wanting Trump to fail, as they will need to emigrate if Trumpet stays in

      I doubt Trampers care

      I took a gander over at the bad place r.conservative and they were surprisingly intelligent about it. Well, most of them were.
