So they voted for the guy who's stated goals of adding high tariffs to all imports and doing mass deportations of workers necessary to the agriculture industry will fuck the economy royally. Yeah, that makes sense.
It took me a long time to figure this out.
Trump lies with every breath. Even his supporters don't believe the literal truth of his words. They instead replace the literal meaning of his words, with the more broad idea that he's talking about the thing they like, in a way other politicians don't. That nebulous ephemeral feeling is what they are voting for.
Of course they can't understand that, let alone express it coherently. Which is why all their reasons are such incoherent straw-grasping.
And it literally happens right here on lemmy: https://lemm.ee/post/46717894/16004361

I was trying to find the clip where the q-nut finds ex-president Garrison in the grocery store and tells him he knows what he's really saying, but Garrison just calls him a crazy son of a bitch; but I couldn't find it.
This one is clear enough though.
