Denial is hard

Like the stages of grief.



I say the MAGAts are in between denial and anger right now.

But point is they are under such heavy belief the supreme court will just give Trump another term. This is what Morpheus said in the Matrix. The red pill will keep you in wonderland. The blue brings you back to reality. Which one do you think they took in this regard? Its sad and pathetic. I kinda feel sorry for them (barely) since they are gonna be without a messiah to follow. No con will ever achieve the level Trump did with these redpilled individuals. A good chunk probably won't vote again. Trump was special to them and no Trump, they likely won't vote.

Point is. My dear ignorant brainwashed right wingers. Take the fucking blue pill and return to reality. Sooner or later its gonna come crashing down anyway.

I swear half the dialogue could have been written about Trump and his methods. It really is a must-see for teaching us all how NOT to repeat history.

Sadly, Trump's supporters swallowed what those in Italy, Germany and to some extent, Spain, thinking that Mussolini, Hitler and Franco had all the answers. But like someone in the program says, beware someone who comes up with simple answers for complex problems.

Problem is Trump is too stupid to be a dictator. He had others doing the work for him while he just spout off nonsense and hate to a bunch of ignorant fools.

Simple answers to complex questions to me sounds like. Politics for dummies.

Hitler was not of more than average intelligence despite what some of his admirers have said. He had a few things he had a real aptitude for and was able to parlay that into absolute power. It was his decisions and his alone that blew WWII for Germany. He made a series of the biggest and dumbest mistakes in the history of Warfare in regards to Russia. Just a total clown.
