Because he’s…fundamentally stupid, and doesn’t actually understand why he’s wrong?
This is the same guy who thinks that there’s multiple types of “per capita”.

Why is the GOP still propping him up? Their internal polling is terrible from all accounts and it’s him that is the drag on the party - for which I am not ungrateful exactly. But it’s a fucking mystery to me why they keep supporting him when he’s destroying them utterly.

Well, Donnie did visit that factory where they make masks and stuff, and didn’t wear a mask - so I guess they shipped out the contaminated material, and now, with every test, more people get infected. Yeah. makes sense…

They ship the contaminated stuff to the Navajo Nation.

I think in their calculations the 25% they lose from MAGOTS is more than the 10% they gain back from dumping him. This is the inevitable end of the Southern Strategy.

I went to find a picture of the aftermath of the Jim Jones disaster, with the intention of sarcastically labeling it a Donnie staff meeting, but the scenes were too brutal and horrific - I just couldn’t do it.
So maybe, we do still have a few boundaries he hasn’t forced us to cross yet…

The GOP is like Saruman. Thought he’d be slick and play along, and it would work out better for him in the end. And even when Gandalf offered him a second chance, he rejected it. He’d obviously never read about Calvin Trillin’s father, who used to say, “You might as well be a mensch.”

As with all things Donnie, it depends upon the base…

All the Fake News Media wants is DEATHS. Because of the tremendous work my administrations has done there are more than 320 MILLION people who have not died. You don’t hear about that from the Fake News, and you never will.

O I do really think that’s it, @mattinpa’s lyrical Saruman analogy notwithstanding. What I can foresee absolutely is how they will wail and gnash their teeth after the election even though they know.

The individuals who comprise Trump Nation have never ever been paid as much attention to as after that escalator Trump ride back in 2015.
The S.O.P was always hook the Base and then pivot.
Trump changed that.

Dude. He thinks the F-35 is invisible. He thinks you have a finite amount of energy in your body, like a battery, and exercise wastes it. He may honestly believe, I can’t entirely tell, that China pays us tariff money. If he doesn’t believe it he repeatedly says it. He thinks that hideous Trump Tower apartment of his looks good and his own butler says he orders his steaks so well done they’re “rocking on the plate.” Obviously he’s reached a sort of absolute zero of lame-brainitude beyond which no mortal can go.
