Great article, as far as it went...And to be honest, there's really no way to explain or quantify the mass epidemic of gross imbecility of the part of the American electorate that sent the MAGA dumpster fire to a 5-alarm level. We are much in the same boat as academicians of the 14th Century trying to explain plague by way of astrological charts-after all, what causes otherwise rational people (on every income level,( not just trailer-dwellers in Alabama) who see that the Kool-aid is laced with poison and go ahead and drink it anyway? The only short-term response I can think of is for the news media and various world leaders to stop treating Trump like a rational player and start working on a quarantine playback that doesn't mince words; call it " lies", not " misinformation, and refuse to meet with him under any circumstances. Send a 3rd-level rep. Call a spade a damn shovel when you trip over it in the graveyard at midnight...The less serious attention he gets, the weaker he becomes. Failure's not an option here, people....
