    “I voted for Trump all three times. Yep. I did,” he admits. “But I literally was in the voting booth. And I rapped my knuckles and the Trump one hurt more, and that was the one that I voted for. Because it was just, it was so disgusting and, and I hate to say that, but that’s literally how I made that choice.”

    These people are so fucking stupid. I don’t know how else to describe it. You voted for him because your knuckles hurt more?

    Even after losing his business to Trump’s policies, he stands by his vote: “Given the two people running, regardless of what they said on the campaign trail, I would’ve voted for President Trump again.”

    Fucking stupid and unapologetic. That tracks.

    His brother Stephen agrees: “I don’t think I had a choice to vote any other direction.”

    Stupid runs in the family.

        Cut off one’s nose to spite one’s face. Standard genius stuff. If they were only hurting their own faces no one would care who they voted for. Testament to pride and ego how far people are willing to go to ignore reality or not course correct a past mistake.

      lol this guy hurt himself more while thinking of voting Trump and so that’s how he decided to vote. Loses family business less than a year later as a result.

      Disordered people never want to see their misfortune as the direct consequences of their own actions. They want to place the blame elsewhere. Accordingly, as the Trump presidency becomes a nightmare, it isn’t their fault. They didn’t have a choice. They were misled. The other side would have just done the same thing, only worse. They’ll make up all sorts of things in their mind to excuse themselves and their role in creating this nightmare.
