The other type are the true sociopaths who aren't fooled by Trump one bit, but voted for him because they see him as a useful idiot who fulfills their ultimate wishlist.
I don't want to coexist with either of them.

(25,816 posts)the extent of trump's crimes will be made public. The true believers will think it's fake
news, but some trumpers may be educated, and not by Fox. I'm not holding my breath.
