Expecting all the pundits crying about how Trump sold out his base to the warmongers, that he's owned by Israel, to memory hole that hysterical episode entirely!
My feed this morning is even more full of TDS! It’s almost as if people are now pissed he didn’t go to war against Iran because it undermined their priors, and the cognitive dissonance is bothering them.
Rip Trump all you want for the shitcoins, the free speech violations, the lack of accountability re Epstein and covid — those criticisms are deserved,
But people wildly underestimate how propagandized they’ve been for the last 10 years and even longer — how someone like Trump (a man with gaudy taste, who openly boasts, who eats McDonalds and DGAF) is not of the class of people who should be president.
The entire educational system has instructed you not to be like Trump, and a lot people went into debt to get the status boost, to learn the right way to be, and they fucking hate it that this dude, this perma-tanned asshole with the McMansion of all McMansions, the white gangsta-rapper of sorts, is now running the show and doing a better job than the self-deprecating, well-mannered “adults” in the room who they aspired to be.
I suspect people will be even more pissed if there’s a lasting peace deal between Israel and Iran. People virtue signal their concern about the Iranian people or the Palestinians all the time, but that’s mostly just as fake as the missile exchanges we just saw the last couple days.
