Religion mixed with vulnerability and fear is a dangerous combination.
His cult literally thinks he’s sent from god when anyone with 2 eyes and just as many brain cells can see he is the closest thing to the antichrist that we will ever see.
He even “suffered” a head wound that miraculously healed within days. This shit is literally from their book and they can’t see it in front of their own face.
As someone who did both of those things, I caution you to be sure not to conflate educated with intelligent. I have met many very well educated, astoundingly stupid people in academia and industry. Some of the most educated people I’ve met were as dumb as a sack of hammers, they just had the right mix of personality traits and privilege to help them succeed in a system that above all else requires opportunity, dedication, and time.
You don’t have to be dumb. You can also be evil. All Trump voters exist on a spectrum between dumb and evil to me. I have known a few and they all fall onto the dumb/ignorant side of the spectrum. A lot of them are single-issue voters too.
But honestly, a lot of Republicans are this way. They think their party fights for the working class, despite clear and abundant evidence to the contrary. When a voting bloc like that exists, it’s really not that surprising they can be convinced to vote for someone like Trump.
I don’t understand how you could be dumb enough to vote for this shitstain

I know a very smart lady (university professor, STEM) who voted for him. Church bubble.
