I love this whole article because it so accurately expresses how I feel.

I don't know why so many people support Trump even as he continues to get more extreme and unhinged. A Harris victory wouldn't solve this problem. If she wins, it still wouldn't change the fact that so many people support Trump.

What makes this election uniquely unsettling is that Trump was supposed to fade into the background after his loss to Biden and Jan 6th. After Jan 6th, it seemed like Trump's political career was over. He wasn't expected to make a comeback. (Remember, DeSantis was supposed to be the Republican party's next big star.)

Trump incited an insurrection, has been convicted of felonies and has more possible convictions on the way, and yet he STILL has as much support as he has. It really says a lot about the state of our country.

By the way:

>Hillary Clinton was vilified for referring to half of Trump’s supporters as “deplorable.” 

I'm no Hillary fan. But I have always said, and will continue to say, that her comment was correct and she did not deserve the criticism she got for it.

I think this article illustrates this well. With all the racist, fascist rhetoric coming from Trump, and the anti-immigrant lies, people still support him and make excuses for the disgusting things he says. Hillary was right to say what she said.
