    17,000 people died because they listened to Donald Trump’s medical advice.

    You aren’t the stupidest person in the world.

        It’s kind of a chicken/egg deal. What if he’d pushed the quarantine from the start? Deferred to Fauci and kept his mouth shut? I tghink they would ahve fallen in line. It’s kind of like when Shatner told the Trekkies to get a life. They still loved him, and stuck with the show.

          Conspiracy quackery was already on the rise before Trump. Again I don’t think his base are actually that loyal to him, just the image of him. They ignore things he says and does that they don’t like, Trump could say “trans rights” and they’d just ignore him and keep ranting about groomers.

            “Anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that ‘my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.’” ― Isaac Asimov

            I don’t know when he said that. The other quote to remember is when political candidate Ronald Reagan said that government was the problem. The Right/GOP has a long history of steering people away from critical thinking and towards emotional reactions.

            I honestly don’t know what the MAGoos will do if Trump abandons them.

              They’d just keep rolling along, either deifying trump and saying this “new” Trump is an imposter or finding some other figurehead. The US has always had a regressive right element, Trump was just at the right place and right time to rally them. Trump isn’t some sorcerer who brainwashed what we’re before a bunch of reasonable moderate republicans. If Trump did not exist the US right would have to create one.

                Not a sorcerer, just the guy who was willing to say out loud what the others dog whistled. Even holy roller Mitt Romney was willing to make a little, highly coded Birther joke about Obama. [I don’t need a passport to come to Michigan.]

                I always use this analogy. Nixon = beer. Reagan = grain punch. Bush Jr. = whiskey. Trump = meth.
