Sadly that's the conclusion I've had to come to recently. I wanted to have hope in my fellow Americans, just attributing their choices to being poorly informed or just foolish, but, no, they're just as mean and greedy as he is. They like watching people suffer, and now that they've had their first taste of cruelty, they want more, more, more. They'll be that way long after Trump is gone. They're just mean-spirited assholes. It sucks.
This congress and POTUS is, in fact, a good representation of their values, and they aren't ashamed of it.
(You could have given them that benefit in 2016, and somewhat in 2020, but definitely not in 2024.)
