Read the Mueller report. See the truth.



Trump's base has been gas lighted to the point of no return. There is a certain segment of the population that is susceptible to charismatic con men. Look at Jim Jones and how people took their own lives and their children's lives for that POS. Some woke up at the last minute and managed to escape. Some followed Jones over the cliff.

It will be the same with Trump's hard core base. Fortunately, they are in the minority and will just fade away eventually.

We must remember what Mark Twain said: It is easier to fool people than to convince them they've been fooled.



I also think Twain would have agreed with the Dunning-Kruger effect:



"The Dunning-Kruger effect is a type of cognitive bias in which people believe that they are smarter and more capable than they really are. Essentially, low ability people do not possess the skills needed to recognize their own incompetence. The combination of poor self-awareness and low cognitive ability leads them to overestimate their own capabilities.







The term lends a scientific name and explanation to a problem that many people immediately recognize—that fools are blind to their own foolishness. As Charles Darwin wrote in his book The Descent of Man, "Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge."

This election was 100% fraudulent. There are dozens of statistical impossibilities that occurred and far too many witnesses (and video evidence) of fraud.

When the Special Prosecutor begins the investigations, it is just a matter of time. One would assume that Trump will remain in the White House while the election is decided and proven to be a fraud. IF his presidential powers are not extended in this period, they will have to be extended for a full four years.



Then why didn't Trump's team win ANY court cases -- even from some Republican judges -- on this "evidence"?





You assume wrong.

love this claim. you're a man of medicine and well aware that you are the product of a specific sperm of your father connecting with a specific egg of your mother. factoring in how many sperm your father would have created to that point in his life and how many eggs your mother would have produced the chances of you existing are a "statistical impossibility" and yet...... you exist.

Won't happen. Enjoy more of a divided country for four more years.

Wish that would happen sooner rather than later. I feel like we are living in some never-land...

It's why we need universal mental care even before health care... I'm being completely serious. Between the homeless problem and Trump supporters, undiagosed and untreated mental health issues are hurting this country.
