True but people shouldn't have voted for a sociopath either. There is more blame there.

You don't consider it sociopathic to look at poor people tell them: "Have you just tried being happy?" That was Democrats' entire message for months of the campaign.

Stop pretending dems aren't also sociopaths. You can prefer them to Trump, but stop gas lighting people about how the dems are actually good.

I think that the real story is that economy was doing slightly better, and this is what caused everyone to be so pissed. Its slight uptick caused people to stop and say' "What, that's it? Where is mine? Everybody should Fuck Off". When the economy slightly down-ticks, people tend to be more understanding. Humans are generally shitty and short sighted, especially those that voted for Trump.
