The 2011 Trump tweets warning that President Obama would strike Iran to win re-election are further evidence that he projects everything through what he would do. I don’t think he understands anyone who doesn’t think like he does .

Seeing as the whole impeachment gongshow is revenge for 1998, this makes sense.

And this is always better:

I question the mental competency and/or motives of anyone who voted for this conman and his family of trash.

Based on my entirely anecdotal experience there are 3 kinds of Trump voters:

“Family values” types who only care about appointing as many conservative judges as possible.

Self-described independents who aren’t actually independent because they believed that Hilary and Trump were equally bad. Often heard saying something along the lines of “I know Trump is an asshole but I just hate Hilary.” They pay attention only to personality and not policy. (Pro tip: you hate Hilary because she’s a Boomer 2nd wave feminist who likes wearing pantsuits and came to prominence in the 90s when people liked to backlash against feminists even more than they do now. )

People who genuinely believe that being an asshole is the right way to run the country and want politicians to implement more assholery.

You missed the 4 th type (may also be a subset of #2 above) –

T he ones who HATE HATE HATE Trump sooo much, but they couldn’t possibly vote for Clinton because REASONS, so instead they decided to sit home, or vote for some hack whose VP pick they couldn’t even name and had zero chance of winning instead (they didn’t actually vote for him, but pretty much did or at least actually didn’t care enough to not let him win).

The hipsters of voting, as I call them.

Sounds right. I’ve usually summed it up as:

Fundie nutjobs who want their own version of Gilead but with extra repression.

“I got mine, you can go screw yourself” types, not all luckyboomers, who may be educated, but are voting mostly based on their tax burden and what they see as “takers” (while they themselves likely profit from public sector or parental largesse). These can overlap with that third group.

Those, who like you say, are just attracted to an asshole or want a self-proclaimed strongman to rule their world , and want everything deconstructed, no matter the consequences.

The “I got mine” contingent I had as part of the “just like being assholes” contingent.

There are two subsets of the “I got mine” contingent: the ones who actually got theirs, and the much larger group who haven’t actually gotten theirs but believe they have or will and don’t want others to get free handouts.

The “just want to watch the world burn” contingent I had as part of the not -actually-independent contingent.

Needless to say there’s a lot of overlap between all this shit.

Agreed on all counts. Lots of overlap between mindsets of the faithful. Temporarily Embarrassed Millionaire Syndrome has wrought a lot of damage . Funny how the Simpsons predicted this, let’s just hope their prediction of the end of it is also true.
