I blame dementia. I have a parent that's still a Trump supporter. It's as if they've lost the ability to use reason. I am pretty sure Trump could shoot them in the face and they'd still vote for/support him.

There's theories about the lead from leaded petrol doing a lot of brain damage before it was taken out.

Without looking, something like ppl born before 1980 or so. I really hope so, the following Gen (mine) isn't as hot as I'd like but hoping for the best.

He said in 2015 that he could shoot someone on 5th avenue and people would still love him. One thing I will say is that Trump realized he could easily grift people like your parent. I am sorry, BTW. It sucks.

There are some younger people just as far gone as them but there aren't usually as many at Trump events
