He pisses me off in that his followers believe stupid shit on his behalf, like [this tweet](https://imgur.com/a/RLXbq0k) from one of his idiot supporters who says that Trump can’t get a fair trail in NYC because it’d be impossible to find a jury of his peers. Because his jurors would all have to be billionaires, too. ---

Just wanted to add that partisanship has been around forever. While Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address was generally well received, I did find this gem. ]([Gettysburg Address - Wikipedia](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gettysburg_Address#cite_note-History20130222-8)) The Democratic-leaning _[Chicago Times](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicago_Times)_ observed, “The cheek of every American must tingle with shame as he reads the silly, flat and dishwatery utterances of the man who has to be pointed out to intelligent foreigners as the President of the United States.” Who knew Trump had so much in common with Lincoln? ---

> [@aurora\_maire](#): > > STEPHANOPOULOS: Just to sum up. You support Trump for president even if he’s convicted in the classified documents case. You support him for president even though you believe he contributed to an insurrection. You support him for president even though you believe he’s lying about the last election. You support him for president even if he’s convicted in the Manhattan case. I just want to say, the answer to that is yes, correct? > > SUNUNU: Yeah. Me and 51 percent of America.

To call Sununu’s response disingenuous would be generous. First of all, Trump does not have and never had the support of 51% of the country. Second, unlike Sununu, a large portion, perhaps most, of Trump’s supporters do NOT believe he lied about the election, or that he committed any crimes with classified documents, or instigated an insurrection. So he can take his “I guess we can’t all be wrong” bullshit and shove it up his ass. ---
