Still can't grasp how it is that 50% of America still allies with Trump? Try to understand the power of groupthink, poli-psyops & most importantly, *resentment*.
Yes, geo-isolation & MAGA brainwashing are factors in today's reality-defying worldviews, but the biggest reason is the "us-vs-them" mentality collectively created by:

- racists & white supremacists
- evangelical Christians
- NRA/gun fanatics
- anti-socialists from China/Cuba
