      How do you protect a democracy when 10% of your voters think the Earth is flat and 65% can’t even read at a 12th grade level when they graduate high school?

      Not to mention the fact that anyone from anywhere with any agenda can build a massive platform with enough money, and we have no hate speech laws…

      You mean 30% of Americans? America isn’t like it is because of Trump. Trump is the way he is because of Americans.

      Trump is a symptom. America is the disease.

      They are reprogrammable meatbots.

      Ask one of these “maga” types how and why donnie, as a conservative, got to the point of gleefully raising taxes (aka, tariffs) on all Americans at every possible chance and at such an alarming rate:

      “The real Marklar understand that donnie is the true Marklar, because the Marklar view has been that tariffs are actually very Marklar and all of Marklar love them now. Only the RINOs who aren’t real Marklar would say that historically tariffs are not Marklar. Anyone claiming to be Marklar and saying tariffs are impoverishing them and destroying their businesses are not Marklar enough to trust donnie’s wisdom and his Great Plans. Marklar! USA! USA!”

      Everything they say about things like tariffs is exactly as stupid as the above paragraph.
