As Florida Governor Ron DeSantis flipped pork chops in front of the cameras at the Iowa State Fair on Saturday, a plane appeared in the broiling blue sky.
I have never been able to really comprehend why these people like him. He comes across like a bumbling moron. He’s ineloquent, abrasive and probably just as stupid as he seems. He has literally no redeeming qualities yet millions of people act like he’s the Messiah or something. I really struggle to understand how this guy of all the millions upon millions of people in the US is the only one who can illicit this type of response.
About half of Trump supporters just love him. They share some of the same personality traits. They believe in conspiracy theories. They’re mad at the world. They want to “own the libs”. They’re not very educated, they’re very tribal.
The other half do not like his personality at all, but they don’t care because he’s effective and they like his policies. He’s a means to an end. These are the ones that are hurting the country so much more. They know that he’s destroying the political system and they don’t care, because they’ll get what they want. They support Trump over DeSantis not because they like Trump as a person, but because they think Trump has the best chance of winning.
“He makes the left mad, so he must be doing something right!”
That’s not hyperbole, that’s the literal smoothbrain logic of Republican morons. So long as he irritates liberals, he’s in the conservative good books.
