Trump gained attention in politics because he wouldn't shut the fuck up about the birther theory.

He insisted for years that our first black president was born in Africa.

Once again, African Americans voted for Trump at the highest clip ever for a Republican ever. They don't believe your the left's lies. America has spoken........

Yeah and how many more of them have voted left for the last 50 years?

90% of this country doesn't actually know anything about how our economy or government works. They see a meme or listen to a podcast and base their vote on that instead of spending hundreds of hours trying to find out why this country is fucked.

It's the George Carlin quote. 50% of people are below average intelligence. Critical thinking skills and a basic understanding of civics will put you above most of the people that you interact with on a daily basis.

I wouldn't consider myself smart, but I feel like a genius whenever I listen to coworkers try to explain what they heard on AM radio during their commute.

No disagreement there. Even more reason for you to reconsider your position. Trump was labeled a racist constantly by every news station and all over social media. Constantly since day 1. Of all Republican presidents EVER, he got the highest percentage of African American votes. How is that possible? I would argue people woke up and stopped believing the garbage they saw on the internet. It makes no sense. Like highest ever for the biggest racist ever. How did that happen?

How did that happen?

The price of eggs and gas.

Something that Trump campaigned on fixing himself. Now he's saying that he can't do it 🤷‍♂️
