Do you think trump voters and audiences will ever realize how much

Trump and republicans loathe them? They sling lies at them like a flowing river of shit. Such fools, such suckers...not that they deserve any respect. It is actually a deplorable match made in heaven (or hell)

The loathing has been pretty obvious for decades to anyone who has seen through all the hate and fear-mongering. If they haven't realized it by now, they never will.

This is a cognitive bias in people who cling to an illusory belief in their own vast superiority over others and mistakenly assess their cognitive ability as greater than it is. Just look at Trump.
