    I have an explanation:

    Propaganda works really well.

    The things you listed are what someone on the left thinks of Trump.

    Someone who is: Tough on Crime™, Fights for Liberty™, Cares for Children™, a Successful Business Man™, Fights Wokeness™, Highly Intelligent™, Protects Democracy™, and Fights for Christianity™, is what those on the right are made to believe Trump is.

    Propagandists are why Trump will win again…

    I hate propagandists with every fiber of my being.

    Not only do they give cover to this piece of shit, they make the right feel as if WE are oppressing and attacking them! They literally put us all in danger by making the right feel threatened by our existence.

    This is NOT the same as us saying POLITICIANS on the right putting us in actual danger and actually oppressing us… One is saying Joe schmoe liberal is the danger, the other is saying Mitch Mcfuckbag in the Senate is a danger to us all.

      Even though each and every one of those things is a provably blatant lie.

        “The Greeks were a bunch of woke gays anyway, good riddance” is what a Republican might say if they knew the Greeks invented democracy.
