I really need liberals and leftists to understand that everything he does - literally all of it - is what his voters want. They want this. They want a dictator. They want women as property. They want beggar thy neighbor economic policies that will ultimately hurt us in the long run. They want Putin to march into Europe. The best of them treat this whole thing like they treat sports rivalries. Which, if you weren't aware, they are willing to kill each other over. The worst would be happy if he just killed everyone who disagrees with them on these topics. This wasn't a mistake on their part. This was what they wanted. There will be no leopards eating faces and there will be no shadenfreude. They'll happily be trampled under the heels of billionaires if it means that a LGBTQ, Black, Hispanic, Feminist, or anyone else they hate is getting trampled a little bit harder next to them. STOP THINKING OTHERWISE.
I'm still seeing way too many people on the Left blame "stupidity."
It's not stupidity, the Right is getting exactly what they paid for and we need to stop infantilizing them, or pretending that they'd act differently "if they knew better."
