Ex-Bush Aide Has Damning Theory For Why Trump Supporters Won't Turn On Him (LOL)

Peter Wehner said there’s a reason why many of President Donald Trump’s most loyal supporters won’t turn on him.

“It is almost like a hermetically sealed world,” Wehner said on CNN’s “Reliable Sources.” “Facts are like BBs, they’re just bouncing off of a brick wall. They just don’t penetrate.”

Wehner, who served in the administrations of presidents Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush and as a senior aide in the White House of President George W. Bush, said it comes down to a concept called the psychology of accommodation.

“People decided early on for a variety of reasons to accommodate themselves to Donald Trump, some of them thinking that things would get better, that he would grow in office, that he would be surrounded by good people,” Wehner said.

Instead, Trump has gotten worse. But because of their early accommodation of the president, these voters are essentially stuck with him.

That is despite his verbal jitterbug, his foolish tweets, his general ignorance and crassness, his (falsely) alleged racism, and, especially, his horrific personnel choices.
................................................
All of your criticisms (except for the last one), are nothing more than bullsh*t whining that only serves the interests of the ‘rats. And the “general ignorance” criticism is simply a leftist attempt to disparage a man who is vastly superior intellectually to virtually everyone in this country who oppose him, especially the thieves and traitors on Capitol Hill.

Progressivism is a mental disorder, the hallmark of which is cognitive dissonance.
