      Simple people love simple answers.

      It’s a lot easier to blame trump personally and pretend we’d have been fine without him. Even tho most of the people saying Trump’s the only problem, said the same thing about Bush.

      It’s easier to blame the sacrifice goat (especially when the goat is evil) than it is to understand if that goat was never born the same people would have just brought out a different goat.

      Republican and neoliberal presidents are always just empty suits for the oligarchs.

      But simple people never pay enough attention, they don’t look past the surface. They’ll never understand how to fix the underlying condition, because they only notice symptoms.
