My two Trumper brothers

One of them I've long since given up on. The other I kept engaging conversation with in hope to make progress. That ended when he revealed himself as a flat earther. How can you have an intelligent conversation with someone who posts this?

* GRAVITY *
Strong enough to hold down
the oceans and our atmosphere
yet weak enough to allow birds to fly

He wasn't always this stupid. What happened? Is there a cure?

Trumpers. The oldest one passed at 75, he was glued to Fox News 24/7. The younger one passed at 48, he followed Alex Jones. The moon landing was staged, th twin towers were imploded. If he was alive today he would still be listening to Alex Jones. Someone else was always at fault for their failures in life.

...sounds like he doesn't believe in gravity either. Because as ridiculous as the notion of a flat earth is there would still have to be gravity or the first time you jumped you would sail clean into space. LOL!

which eats your brain cells away and lowers your IQ to a point to where you eventually end up as a frothing at the mouth lunatic ready for the strait jacket and a rubber padded room.
