A pair of Long Island Trump voters visited Ireland recently. I think they were in their late 60s / early 70s. It looks like the current administration will be downsizing or disbanding the organisation their daughter works at and she’ll likely lose her job.
Some other changes made by this administration mean that several of their investments are losing value. So they’re very unhappy about him being in power now, although apparently the rape thing and being an overall creep was never an issue.
Anyway, Id’ read that people like this exist and never actually saw / heard them before. It’s real folks. They don’t seem particularly bright but it seems they’ve done well for themselves in life.
They do life by the numbers, and if they have a solid start and a stable background they become very detached from the real world, floating in that middle class bubble. They hold opinions that were injected trough media as their own, and don’t question them. When the real world pops their bubble, they are very surprised and have to do intense mental gymnastics blaming it on a cat eating immigrants.
That damn cat needs to stop eating all the immigrants!
It’s because those god damn democrats keep refusing to empty the litter box.
