"SNIP.....

“OK, Trump voters are not idiots. We don’t need to give America a moral education; they know that he’s an asshole. They get it. They’ve just baked that in,”

— Rep. Seth Moulton (D-MA), quoted by Politico.

I see a lot of posts that assume, "If only people knew what Trump was REALLY doing, they wouldn't support him!"

It's not going to make a difference. Even if you paid a Trump supporter a thousand dollars to read the Mueller report (and you could give a test to see if reading comprehension was one of their skills before awarding the money) they'd still support him.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
