If you ever talk to a Republican voter (MAGA) they don't fly off the page as well educated people with a firm grasp of reality. They come off as deeply stupid and disturbing fuck faces. The 2024 election was deeply disturbing in showing just how many of these people there are. It's scary how many just awful humans live in this country.
