Some people I speak to who are in the “Trump camp” just believe it’s a media witch hunt against him and he’s not as bad as the media make out.
I blame social media and some of the lockdowns. Even people I’ve known for years who I consider pretty intelligent and switched on went a bit on the conspiracy trail during Lockdowns.
Now i speak them, they don’t believe the mainstream media (although a few will read right wing papers
) and aren’t 100% Covid was really that bad etc. it really does boggle the mind.
It’s almost like they’re supporting Trump as a FU to the media.
I don’t trust the media much at the best of times, but indepently researching Trump isn’t hard. 98% of the stuff he says is batshit crazy - hours of it on YouTube and Social Media. He’s not fit to be anywhere near Presidency.
Bit of course, that’s because the media has told me to think that way. The deep state etc. I’m not like those independent thinkers who do their “own research”.
