From the referenced article: "Sasse defended himself as holding Trump accountable for his actions and denounced blind loyalty to a single <Trump> person." Next Sasse will deny that Trump is not the second coming of Christ and will also deny as Congresswoman Green said the Jews did not start fires in California to profit other Jews in the ungodly high-speed rail system. Sasse has mental symptoms characterized by his thoughts being "rational and t***h-oriented."

The old saying, "when all around you people are in a panic [frightened] and you aren't, then you must be missing something." In this case the wrath of the new God, Trump. In a sense, when all around you believe in a myth and you don't ... well in the old-testament you would be stoned to death... in this case, Sasse is being stoned with words, condemning him for not believing in the new God.

Politics should not be the weird worship of one man, but for many that is what it has become; clearly evidenced by many here in the Attic.

I've been doing some research on Trump supporters and uncovered evidence that the strongest and most fervent supporters are those with the lowest level of education and intelligence.
Not surprising, but worth thinking about.

I'll bet you can't specifically explain your research process and you also can't explain a factual example of your concluding statement.

I knew you couldn't provide facts. The left doesn't have facts. You make stuff up.

The conclusions are certainly borne out by statistics on v**er profiles/characteristics.

Their rationale, not their beliefs but the very process they use at arriving to those beliefs is evidence of that.

We aren’t speaking of Conservative William F. Buckley here.

More bla bla bla, but no facts and no example. Anyone can say what you just said without any facts.

It is trivial to look stuff up on the internet but "You hafta wanna."

Regarding the 2020 e******n:
https://www.ft.com/content/69f3206f-37a7-4561-bebf-5929e7df850d
"A preliminary snapshot suggests the wealthy stood by Trump but the more highly educated backed Biden..."

Regarding the 2016 e******n: (Note: the quotes are the headings of tables of data)
https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/education-not-income-predicted-who-would-v**e-for-trump/
"Clinton’s margin surged in the 50 most-educated counties"
"Clinton collapsed in the 50 least-educated counties"
"High-education, medium-income white counties shifted to Clinton"
"High-income, medium-education white counties shifted to Trump"

I could go on... but what's the point.

When the 'one dude' can say with perfect confidence ...

... "I can shoot someone on 5th Ave and I won't lose any support." You're in trouble.

At the time, only Trump and Micheal Moore knew it wasn't an idle boast. Now the world knows.

A press pic from around the same time as Trump's 'declaration of intentions'.

You put up a cartoon, but as expected, you didn't answer the question.
