Everyone knows it, half the country doesn't want to admit the obvious. They are to politically stubborn. At least I am capable of saying I wish Trump would ease up a bit on certain things, they refuse to budge on thinking their guy is just fine.
“...half the country doesn’t want to admit the obvious.”
To admit it, would mean change. Change means work. Many people avoid work and want easy answers.
As Geo Carlin said ... never underestimate the power of a large group of stupid people.
