It should be 100%, since this is so ridiculously obvious.
The guy made billions....so far. There is no fucking way he's prioritizing shit other than self-enrichment and self-aggrandizement.

And many of those Americans knew that would be the case the moment the fat fuck came down his shitty escalator. But sadly we were outnumbered by the left side of the bell curve, and the very outmoded electoral college system.

These Americans are sooop smart figuring this out
Everyone watches, reads, or listens to different information. That creates a mess. Working as intended though. How does a population unify when every individual is on a different page?
Favorite moment was when I asked someone kinda tuned out: "How do you think donnie made billions in just over a year?"
They thought I was bullshitting them.
Better late than never. Best not to throw shade on people doing what you want them to do.
Only 45 years late?
These never heard of or seen it before a Lemmy post news sources are not likely to be read by any substantial number of voters.
The news is so scattered and disparate now. Almost no one is on the same page when it comes to relevant, life and world affecting information.
What’s the last thing we all shared? Tiger King, during lockdown?
Squid Game. Making sourdough bread at home. Oh, White Lotus!
Somebody cue the video of Jason Lee saying "isn't that the truth?" from Chasing Amy (after the Star Wars rant).
I can’t imagine how people think anything else. He has no positive publicity, in the 80s and 90s he was constantly getting shit on in interviews.
I blame that fucking game show he was given. I guess before that some rappers thought he had street cred or some shit.
I mean people that were at least marginally aware would know he was a jackass long before. Did anyone reading/watching American Psycho think the protagonist worships donnie for justifiable reasons?
