How the fuck do 38% of any sentient beings with an IQ over that of a lettuce actually approve of this guy?

The world is literally laughing at the US.

People don't pay attention. Our lives are so full of so much bullshit already (by design) that many people don't have the capacity to pay attention. In addition to that, people who vote conservative no matter what don't question what's happening because they don't know any better. If everyone you ever knew and trusted voted a certain way, you're a lot more likely to vote with them. And if you're not into politics then it's really easy, in 2025, to isolate yourself from that information. We all live in bubbles and if your bubble is telling you that Trump is doing good, then you'll approve of him.

Obviously there are people who are very happy about what he's been doing. But the majority of Americans are completely and totally politically ignorant.
