The problem with a section of the Left (of which I am a part) is that they assume that Donnie got elected due to a momentary lapse of moral judgement on the part of Donnie voters and that they can be reasoned with and “be shown the error of their ways!” I posit that they were not “fooled” so much as finally given what they always craved – a narcissist, bigoted racist and serial sexual assaulter who was a pathological liar and an ignoramus with little to no concept of history, either world, national nor political! The “Donnie” voter finally had someone with the same characteristics they exhibited, but “in spades!” In my opinion, Donnie exhibits the characteristics of a 1930’s Fascist, but not Hitler – no, Donnie exhibits the same character flaws as Benito Mussolini. They both were/are strutting peacocks, puffed up with self-importance and absolutely convinced that they were RIGHT! The main difference between Bennie and Donnie is, Bennie was an educated man (a teacher, in fact) while Donnie can only be described (charitably) as an ignoramus. It’s been said that Americans want a President they “could have a beer with.” Not Donnie voters! Donnie voters crave a President that is just as stupid if not more so, than they are They crave someone in the White House of whom they can say, “I may be stupid, but I know more than he does!” I say this, not to denigrate the Donnie voter but to warn the Left that, if you’re expecting Donnie voters to come to their senses, you may be waiting a very long time!
