Agree 100%. And if my post calling a Trump supporter a moron is arrogant, smug, and condescending then I am prepared to own all of those accusations. I AM better than Trump supporters and I DO look down on them. All of them. Not a single one can make a policy based argument in favor of his Presidency. Not a one. And if you ask them to they rant about snowflakes and fake media and whatever else Tucker Carlson tells them the night before. A large portion of his base supports him and squeals with delight because he antagonizes people that are intelligent, educated, and open-minded. Those people are morons. All of them. And if that sounds arrogant or smug or condescending then good.

>>>I AM better than Trump supporters and I DO look down on them. All of them. So you THINK you're the smartest guy in the room...and yet you can't even conceptualize that, somewhere among the US population of 330 million people, with ~6.6 million geniuses, that there are intelligent, educated, open-minded voters who heavily-weighted policy issues such as border security, 2nd Amendment, and countering a rising China, looked at their Candidate options, and opted for Trump as a best-fit to pursue their prioritized issues. If your brain can't fathom that possibility, then ARE you objectively better than ALL of them? That's far beyond statistically improbable. I would hope that you would cultivate a sense of introspection and contemplate the subject. All of us would benefit. Seriously. No one in America gains when portions of our population are completely unable to productively engage with their fellow citizens, which they've cast wholesale in a mold shaped by the most ridiculous, caricatured stereotype possible.

  I used to work for the Republican party and am - literally - the guy that drew the 2000 Texas congressional map which laid the groundwork and provided the blueprint for the GOP to disenfranchise voters at the the state and federal level in 48 states for the last 20 years. I am 100% better and smarter than every Trump supporter on earth. All of them. Border, 2nd ammendment, rising China...if you want to talk policy I am most certainly your Huckleberry.

    Just judging by what you’re saying here you’re nothing but a moron yourself.

      Probably. Still better than everyone who supports DJT.

        You need to relax and realize that just because you don't like someone doesn't mean literally everyone who supports him is an idiot. You sound like a raging extremist. It's ironic that you're so sure you are smarter than like 100 million people.
