Trump is a trash human.
I really don't understand supporting him with a vote, let alone with money.
Every analysis demonstrates that the voters of the Trump base are the least educated Americans in the country..
so even if they would care that he is a lying, narcissistic, cad who steals their money-
they don't do any research or investigate Trump or DeSantis policies or real events outside their own lives.
they hear a soundbite or see a bumper sticker and like it.
That is pure opinion on your part…there happen to be quite a few Trump hardliners that are actually quite educated…it's easier to call someone "dumb" when you disagree with their stance than it is to take the time to understand them…
It's simply a fact that Trump voters tend to be non college educated and rural while DeSantis tends to do better with intellectual conservatives and Suburban types. Are there exceptions? Yes, MANY. Still that's the base of the 2 campaigns. I don't think namecalling on anyone is productive though.
We have discussed the "cult" thing before many times. To me there is a distinctive difference between the majority who just like Trump or think he is the best candidate and the minority who think everything Trump does is amazing and wonderful and would defend him like Laura Loomer no matter what he did. Those folks are "cult" like. It's just hard to separate them. It's also hard to hold your fire when there are literally no limits on what Trump supporters will say about DeSantis or his supporters that are easily disproved lies.
