I laughed so hard I scared the dog.

HOW? how do people believe this? I mean, seriously did they just break the knob off on the old black-and-white on the Fox channel?

A lot of Trump's policies, the tariffs being a perfect example, rely on the ignorance of the general population.

It's scary how tremendously well this has worked out for him.

A lot of Trump's policies, the tariffs being a perfect example, rely on the WILLFUL ignorance of the general population.

Again, it's not that many of them can't understand these things, it's that they won't.

Thats what makes them even worse. We can't even blame it on innocent buffoons just not being educated enough, they actively avoid even accidentally becoming educated. Its like they know that if they become smarter they won't be able to believe all the dumb shit they believe and that would be boring.
