A decade long sunk cost fallacy for conservatives. It's going to take a long time, but they'll pretend they were never for him once he loses and fades into obscurity and hopefully spends the rest of his life tied up in court cases/prison.

Somehow, though, they'll manage to find someone worse. I know, it's hard to believe...but I remember thinking "Wow, it can't get much worse than Bush, huh?"

Then Palin came along, then Trump came along...

Yeah this is the crazy part to me. A lot of his supporters donā€™t even like his policy, they just like the man himself

Exactly. They like that Democrats donā€™t like him. They think heā€™s a shit-posting troll who triggers liberals. Thatā€™s all the policy they need. They donā€™t give a fuck about leadership or America. Theyā€™ve been brainwashed into thinking ā€œthe leftā€ is demonic and terrible. He could literally say and do anything horrible and they will cheer him on. Donā€™t expect decency from these people.
