It’s funny because most republicans recognize that all politicians are corrupt and shitty people, and so they want to pull a “Hunger Games” or Game of Thrones” and sort of break the wheel and destroy these rich power dynasties.

The media recognizes this and pushes propaganda to paint them as fascist nazis.

The left eats up the propaganda and therefore is stuck in the “us vs them” mentality, thereby ensuring nobody actually stands up to the power dynasties.

This is why a lot of republicans still and will always support Donald Trump. Regardless of the person he is or may be, the power dynasties DO NOT WANT HIM AS PRESIDENT. There must be a reason why. So they will continue to vote for him and support him.

It’s both why Republicans will turn a blind eye to things Trump has said or done, and why the power dynasties spend extra time focusing and picking apart things Trump has said or done, while protecting and not reporting on other corrupt politicians.

Really it boils down to, Republicans have taken the “red pill” and are ready to take down the system and powers. Democrats got a taste of the Red Pill with Bernie, but quickly swallowed the blue pill when the DNC stole the nomination and gave it to Hillary. They got sucked back into the game but were so close to breaking free.

The RNC is trying to suck republicans back into the game now with DeSantis.

Now, some people say Trump has always been “part of the game”. I personally think this is not the case because Trump has shed light on a lot of corruption and even admitted to using tax loopholes that existing politicians enabled him to use. He’s revealed what’s going on behind the curtain that most politicians want to hide from the public.

No offense, but you might have lead poisoning.

Trump admitted to using tax loopholes because he's a fucking moron who can't help but incriminate himself.

Sooo…. You would rather he keep it to himself? How is that better? How could you possibly spin this into a negative

Kill your ego and eliminate your fear of being wrong. It opens up a whole new world of possibilities

I've never seen a more perfect example of the Dunning–Kruger effect in the wild, this guy genuinely thinks they are smart without an ounce of self reflection. This is just golden if it's not satire.

I don’t think I’m smart and I have nothing but self reflection, constantly doubting myself and observing myself from a third person perspective.

No it’s not satire, so yes it’s golden
