They know they’re unpopular and they don’t care

Trump’s approval is around 35% or so, and those are mostly the cultists who will support him no matter what. It’s still lower than any other President at this point in their presidency.

The majority of Americans do not approve of anything he is doing, but the Republicans don’t care. They laugh and pretend they’re popular — mostly because they live in that bubble where they only pay attention to the news sources that suck up to them — but the fact is that they are tremendously unpopular.

And that’s why they cheat. That’s why they do everything they can to prevent people from voting. That’s why they ignore the laws and do whatever they want because they know they’ll lose otherwise.

And they’re successful often because they have spent years building to this point, filling courts with judges whose views are political instead of legal, gerrymandering to control legislatures, and knowing they can get away with it because we’re the “good guys” who won’t stoop to their level to stop them.

But hey, they don’t care who they hurt to get their power, to help their billionaire friends, to destroy people who aren’t like them.

I mean, seriously, this isn’t a fight between liberal and conservative any more; it’s more of a fight of good and evil.
