(12,154 posts)Some, maybe a lot, are racists. But there are those who honestly thought that the royal 'Rump was going to lift their lives out of the miasma of despair. While it seems plain to us that he was not going to help anyone but himself and his cronies it was not so for so grasping at straws while drowning in unemployment, debt and foreclosure.
True they should've seen the light at the end of that tunnel in a President Clinton but they had not seen much improvement during the terms of President Obama. I am not suggesting it was his fault as he inherited the horrible mess of the last puke buffoon and an increasingly puke congress that wish to make his presidency a failure. It seems we are always having to clean up the economic and military messes of the puke misadminstrations instead of being able to put our energy into real progress.
