A pair of Long Island Trump voters visited Ireland recently. I think they were in their late 60s / early 70s. It looks like the current administration will be downsizing or disbanding the organisation their daughter works at and she’ll likely lose her job.

Some other changes made by this administration mean that several of their investments are losing value. So they’re very unhappy about him being in power now, although apparently the rape thing and being an overall creep was never an issue.

Anyway, Id’ read that people like this exist and never actually saw / heard them before. It’s real folks. They don’t seem particularly bright but it seems they’ve done well for themselves in life.

    They don’t seem particularly bright but it seems they’ve done well for themselves in life.

    This is such a dangerous combination. Success combined with stupidity seems to breed arrogant people that have never had a deep thought in their entire lives (nor do they believe they need to, given their success). Usually these types defer to some sort of homespun “common sense” no matter the topic at hand.
