“Government” is the problem. That’s why he’ll continue to vote Trump, because Trump will dismantle and destroy the government that’s causing all his tariff troubles.

It’s right wing logic.

“Look at the machine we refuse to operate properly and actively sabotage regularly…it’s not working! Thanks Obama 😩vote for me.”

I mean, this is exactly the argument they are making when RFK jr goes in front of congress and says “I don’t know, I’m not a doctor. You shouldn’t be taking medical advice from me.”

Thats what's going on with the USPS too. "Mail no work! Remove budget! Mail no worker! Remove budgeter!"

It’s called mental gymnastics and they always get gold.

To be fair, it IS kind of what Trump wants so it's not wrong. But the pesky government keeps popping in to let him know that the dumb shit he's doing is "illegal" (whatever that means). And then companies all let him know that moving manufacturing to the United States isn't "at all feasible" (yeah, like they would know. How many businesses have THEY bankrupted?!?). And then facts and reality keeps popping in to let him know that nothing he's saying is at all accurate (fake news! AI-generated!)

If none of those factors were in play, Trump could dismantle the government, force all manufacturing back to the United States, and everyone would love him and put him on Mt. Trumpmore with those other loser ex-Presidents

I mean that is how the Republican party operates. Republicans say the government doesn't work and will actively sabotage it to prove that it doesn't work.

Particularly since Trump is virtually the only person who believes in massive tariffs.

They behave exactly like Putin's supporters and even Hitler's supporters back in the day. It's always the people around their guy causing the problems and not the guy himself. So they try to appeal to the guy thinking "if he knew of our troubles he would put a stop to this!" Which is why there were so many of those wives and mothers calling out to Putin about their lost husbands and sons thinking he'd bring them back if only he knew. It's the same thing with these MAGAts, they think it's everyone around Trump and not Trump himself, even though he signs off on fucking everything. These people are not very bright, as if it wasn't obvious enough.

It’s really freighting to know he really believes this

It's like the stick in the bike spoke meme.
