Exactly. It's something his supporters will hopefully come to grips with one day. They can't blame liberals, the media, or anyone else. At the end of the day, the reality is this man is a self centered dirtbag who has no interest in helping anyone but himself. They'll remain in denial for years to come and a lot may never acknowledge it, but that won't change the reality. I suspect Trump will do far more damage to the GOP than he'll ever do to the Democrats. the GOP have long prided themselves on the "moral high ground." While we can debate if they ever had it, by the end of Trump's term, even the GOP won't be able to sell that. they've sold their souls all in the name of some imaginary war against imaginary enemies.
I truly wish I believed that, but I don't think it will happen. I listen to his supporters who disagreed with him on certain issues, at least on a superficial level (LGBTQ rights, or women's rights) and see them contorting themselves to explain how and why he didn't mean what he said, his cabinet and advisor picks and their atrocious backgrounds have nothing to do with them, they will stand up if he *really* takes away "their" rights, etc.
People who support him because he says it like it is? Not bothered by his lies, still supporting him.
People who say they voted for him bc of jobs? Still not complaining, I don't see/hear them questioning his plans for a wall. Are the displaced coal miners and steel workers planning to move south to build the wall?
I could go on and on with examples, you get my drift
And the GOP? Even those who have shown enough cojones to question him, or his nominees, are staying right in line, voting for those nominees, staying on their gravy train. There's money to be made here for them, corporations to strengthen alliances with, I don't see any of them worrying about the actual people who elected them, until and unless they're overwhelmingly voted out of office. The party that purports to be the party of integrity and character has none.
