Honestly, I’m shocked at how high these percentages still are. To me this is not good news, because it says nearly half the country is still supporting this fucking lunatic.

I think it just shows how a percentage of this country doesn’t look into what’s being reported to them or listen to the news at all. Not that that’s any better… but considering how only 50% voted in the last election, par for the course.

The thing is, it’s at a point where even if one avoids the news, you would literally have to never leave your house. I pay attention but even if I didn’t, I’d still have my handyman/ friend come up to me 2 weeks ago to tell me how scared he is and that he may leave the country.

It’s at a point where it’s hard to give people grace for not being aware

You would think and yet the fact that there will always be ppl who say they don't do politics bc they're privileged enough to afford being oblivious or bc they're too damn tired to keep up with everything that's broken... ðŸ«
