The forest was shrinking, but the trees kept voting for the axe because its handle was made of wood and they thought it was one of them.

I spoke to a co-worker this morning who is a tRump supporter. I was telling her about one of the news items I read earlier on DU about Manafort being tangentially connected to that walking bridge that fell in Florida. She looked at me with a blank stare and said "who's Paul Manafort?". It just highlighted how completely fucking stupid these people are. They have no idea whats going on around them and just listen to sound bites from Fux news.
