Also, I decided to test Trump's numbers so far with his vote count in 2016, and found something legitimately horrifying. So far, he's gotten 5,530,418 more votes this time around than last time, and, odds are, by the time you read this, the numbers will be higher. This means more than 5 1/2 million Americans have said "you know, I wasn't sure about Trump in 2016, but after seeing him set up concentration camps at the border, jerk off Neo-Nazis, exacerbate racial tensions to heights not seen since the late sixties at the very least, doing whatever he can to turn America into an authoritarian dictatorship, getting impeached and getting away with it because the Republicans don't give a shit about the law, and giving as little of a shit about the pandemic that's currently raging as is humanly possible even after catching it, he's got my vote!"
I was thinking: what if a great deal of these Trump supporters are treating our political system and elections like a game? I.E., I don't like Trump, but he makes the snowflakes cry and that makes me happy, lol, lets make them cry some more. One has to be either rather ignorant or rather non-serious about the state of the country to be a Trump supporter, and I simply do not perceive half of the country being ignorant to the point where they would willingly prefer a dolt in charge. Therefore, my final assessment is that they mentally get off on playing childish games with the election system.
