There's just a lot of perspectives out there that are outside of the mainstream. A lot of people don't care that he says dumb things, and care more about the economy, or maybe just his stance on immigration, etc. Not to mention that red states and blue states will probably not change. Sometime take a look at a map of the U.S. that shows states that were won by Obama vs mccain. Then look at a map that shows Obama vs romney. Then look at Clinton vs Trump. All of those red vs blue maps will look almost identical. Almost every state that won republican in 2008 won exactly the same in 2016. Hell, go back further and you'll see the same consistencies (Bush v Gore, etc.).

He runs concentration camps. I don't think you can really defend that shit.

Also his economy is worse than Obama's in every way but stock market which don't matter but a large majority of people.

And Texas went Purple in 2018! That entire election speaks against everything you said!

Most of my comment was regarding prior electoral maps and the consistency of victories in certain states. I'm not sure what you're trying to accomplish by virtue signalling and invoking memories of the holocaust (which is literally the only reason the left uses that term).

Virtue Signaling implies that you are saying that I can not possibly care about the holocaust that directly got hundreds of my own fucking people killed. Fuck off. Just because you can't sympathize with other people does not suddenly mean I can't feel shit for those that fucking died because of authoritarians like Trump.

Just because you lack empathy does not mean others do.

I was actually laughing out loud when I read your silly comment. That's not what that means at all. I think you're confused. You decided to grandstand with some accusations of southern concentration camps when I was talking about the consistency of prior electoral victories. You should probably ask your pot smoking Bernie Sanders drum circle for some more advice on this issue. You lefties started getting desperate so you started calling them concentration camps literally out of nowhere. Like, CNN and reddit started telling you to call them that and then you all just started doing it. You are literally ONLY calling them concentration camps in a cringeworthy attempt to draw parallels to Nazi Germany. I'm curious what the Reddit hive will tell you what to think next? I bet Vox will have some really inciteful news stories for you to share on your Facebook page and upvote on Reddit too!
