With the billionaires backing him, it’s going to be on us as individual Americans to make sure Trump doesn’t end up in the White House again. That means not just voting but talking with people around you, volunteering and donating

Americans are very odd.
I’d love to read a breakdown of how American culture got here. Outside of Trump a section of America just loves a grifter / cult leader. From Elon Musk to leaders of mega churches, there are just Americans seemingly willing to be conned.
Of course this is true in all cultures but America appears to execute grift to maximum profitability. Mega church pastora with 6 jumbo jets, etc.
Culturally, we also sadly don’t seem to have many other measures of success aside from wealth, and a poor social support structure that requires people to seek out their own forms of support. Add in the pervasiveness of the “prosperity gospel”, where the more good you are, the more money you have, and people flock to these conmen because they can’t possibly believe someone that wealthy could be bad.
Seems like most Americans are attracted to extremes of all sorts, so extremists thrive.
