No, I think the companies running vast propaganda campaigns for the sake of their favored candidate so that they can pay 1% less in taxes and/or fuck around with the country as a side project deserve the blame.

And people didn’t know exactly what they were getting? Trump is exactly who America is and who America has always been.

Speak for yourself. Nobody I know is on board with anything that is happening from this administration, or congress or scotus.

They do represent a majority of Americans, but that is different from a majority of voters this time around. I do not belive a majority of Americans like what is going on, and all of us were lied to by those seeking authoritarian rule.

Trump is doing exactly what he said he was going to do. He was in office for four years. Absolutely nothing about him has changed. The only thing is that the people who voted for him thought he was going to hurt other people - not them

> Trump is doing exactly what he said he was going to do

No he doesn't. He has never provided a straight answer to any question about policy ever. He just said whatever he thought the audience wanted to hear. His answer to the same question has never been the same.

It's just that 50% of americans have been captivated by fox/facebook/twitter, and they tell those americans what to believe, and they're telling to vote trump, nomatter what he says.

Like, common. He was very readable and predictable when it comes to policies we discuss now. Literally no one expected him to make healthcare more affordable, to make life of poor better, to build up emergency response agencies or to be nice to trans.

Literally everyone, his voters and his opposition, expected him to do pretty much what he is doing now. The only difference is that his voter thought only other people will be harmed, not themselves. They were looking forward having fun while libs and democrats and trans and whoever else they hate suffer.
