I’m convinced my grandmother believes Trump can’t be as bad as I say he is because she has too much faith in the system. She doesn’t like Trump, she knows he’s bad, but she doesn’t seem to understand the extent of how bad he is. She thinks whatever he does must be justified on some level or else the president wouldn’t do it. She thinks he can’t be doing things that are that blatantly illegal because then something would be done about it
Everyone who isn’t terminally online thinks like this. People who aren’t exposed to the deluge of shit that is actually happening all think “He’s a pretty bad president, but if he was as bad as these people say he is, he would have been impeached by now.”
