    I’m not an apologist.

    Just pointing out simple facts, and I’d think after this last election a reasonable person would get that repeating memes isn’t terribly convincing.

      Apologist : Noun : someone who speaks or writes in defense of someone or something that is typically controversial, unpopular, or subject to criticism.

      Literally the definition from Merriam Webster.

        For someone who is, apparently, capable of referencing facts, you have a remarkably difficult time processing them.

          Anyone with the grasp on reality you are claiming for these voters knows that Trump will make anything they are already angry about worse for everyone including them.

          But they pulled the lever for Trump anyway, because Democrats didn’t talk nicely enough to them?

          I have no money in the bank, and plenty of struggles of my own that Dems could have helped with far more than they have. I’m angry as hell at Democrats for a number of things. It wasn’t enough to get me to pull the lever for Trump.

            That’s the whole point.

            It’s why so many never vote at all. Both D’s and R’s don’t do anything meaningful to mitigate the struggles of the working poor. Dems told people working 2-3 jobs to barely survive in this country to be joyful for three months, and shockingly, the message didn’t resonate.

          Every accusation, a confession.

          Let’s see, blames Dems for something that isn’t their fault… Doesn’t bother to take 2 seconds to research claim before spewing bullshit… “Nuh uh, I’m rubber you’re glue” playground logic…

          Starting to think you might be more than a trump voter apologist.
