Thought that his minions ("loyalist") might see the light over time, but now I suspect I was naive. His base is not interested in facts or reality.
Yes, this is all chilling.

They drink the punch and that will not change. He will maintain many of his cult followers no matter how bad it gets.
The markets haven't begun to really roll over just yet. Could be very rough seas ahead if we maintain this path.
There are some who believe it would be difficult to be that blind. Some believe he is trying to bring down the US economy and this entire country, and he is doing a swell job on that front.

Not easy to stand by as a convict takes over your country, hires a cabinet of circus acts and drives your country face down into the dirt.
Wasn't the initial USPS hiring of DeJoy related to:
1) The GOP (and 1 Orange infant) failing to support the idea that all US voters should be able to easily cast their votes. Revenge for the loss to Biden.
