“It’s quite a shock. You get to know these guys, you become their friends—not just an employer but a friend,”
This guy doesn’t understand how friendship works. You guys are my friends, and that’s why I’ve voted in someone to ruin your life, because I care about you! But this is mildly inconvenient for me too guys, c’mon think about me.
The real problem is that the MAGA movement doesn’t really believe Trump’s literal words. Because the man lies so often, they seem to just go on vibes. But then when Trump actually does something he said he’d do, the voters are suddenly all surprised Pikachu when Trump’s actions don’t match their personal interpretation of what they thought he meant.
This is quite amazing to me since it seems to be the actual case. The people who were saying we shouldn’t listen to him, but watch what he does, were openly advocating for a man whose word they know means nothing. It’s perplexing. Politicians are an untrustworthy lot one and all, but god damn, the open and naked willingness to vote for someone whose position they can’t know, whose promises carry absolutely no weight, that’s truly stupendous.
They are at once admitting Trump says horrible shit, but also that he’s an inveterate liar and that makes it better somehow. Both him being honest and dishonest should be equally disturbing. That’s some next level cognitive dissonance.
