The people who overwhelmingly supported #DonaldTrump in 2016 still support the president even as he sets in motion events that may ruin their farms and tear families apart. They seem to live in a world of naiveté where Trump is as great as he proclaims.

“Even though it might be bad medicine, I think if the president is telling the truth, he's got a lot of experience with negotiation. He wrote a book on it," said Kelly Rudd, an independent cranberry grower in Tomah, Wisconsin.

In #TrumpNation it's better for your mental health to be ignorant.

But, but, but ... who's going to pay for it after the #GOP ran a trillion dollars tax cut through last year? I mean, money was already right, then a cut, then they're going to pull it magically from the air?

I'm amazed by the fact that NBC could not find one single farmer who was critical of Trump. My guess is that they didn't try very hard.

Jason ON Well, I think it's both. This kind of "Trump's supporters will never abandon him" kind of article is so common as to be a cliché. I'm sure they didn't even make an effort to find any dissenting voices.

They'll still be saying it while they sit in their freezing hovel (if they are so lucky) surrounded by their children, brain-damaged by lead in their water (if they are so fortunate) as political sadists fire up their ovens and gas chambers. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

So it goes.

The reason people voted for Trump still exists. People are still desperate for solutions they need.

Robert Martin what do you mean by "solutions they need"?

So, I asked Andrew Tamm, who filled my Stream with a hundred (sarcasm there) animated gifs and cat pictures to remove me from whatever Circle he has me in where he posts the animated gifs and cat pictures. It was either that or unfollow him and I didn't see any reason to unfollow him. Me asking https://plus.google.com/112885755521259735422/posts/78dwnvvgh4p Then he plusses me onto Public posts of animated cat gifs : https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/EuuR1tnU3vJ https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/8r6Grcm2Jpj https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/74PgSu6iL2s Then one of his friends (or Circlers) starts plussing me into posts of animated cat gifs : https://plus.google.com/u/0/107120198886093172821/posts/gRW9JhWLs5T Don't get me wrong, I'm all about sarcasm and messing with people, but this seems sort of childish to me.
