After The Greatest Fraud Ever was “elected” twice, I experienced considerable doubt about the intelligence and about the mentality of the American electorate.

The American people are easily persuaded by complete nonsense frequently and persistently put forward by people determined to seize and abuse power.

“Stay in your homes indefinitely...or there will be two million dead!” it might be the greatest one they ever thought up.

The Ministry of Propaganda convinced enough people that anyone born here is a natural born citizen, including many freepers.
Boris Johnson and the last King of Thailand are considered eligible as well as Anwar al-Awlaki’s kids, born in Yemen to one citizen parent. (If Ted is, they are)

The founders chose natural born citizen to eliminate foreigners from the office.
Anyone born with more than ONE nationality is NOT a natural born citizen.

Lemme tellya about polls. IIRC it was polls that GUARANTEED by 95% certainty that Shrillary Clinton would win the 2016 POTUS Election. To rephrase an old adage: There are lies, damn lies and POLLS!

Less people would believe it if the snail investigating the corrupt fbi and democrats finally started arresting people. Nobody has been thrown in handcuffs even though a bunch of people committed treason. Does this country need to go back to the people bringing justice to corrupt government officials? Tar and feathers could make a big comeback.

The only polls that count are those on election day. Conservatives know that.

Unfortunately the too many people of this country are just mushrooms.

Living in the dark and being fed manure.

Sorry Molly but this is BS.

All I am saying is that you are entitled to your opinion.

It is almost comical to imagine that Putin and Russia would have preferred Trump over Hillary as the Chief Executive of the United States.

You claim your children are even though they were born before you became a citizen resulting in them having German and US citizenship.

PT Barnum had a shorter version. He also paraphrased it with, “A sucker is born every minute.”
It isn’t a lack of intelligence, generally - it is simply that
The natural disposition is always to believe.

It is acquired wisdom and experience only that teach incredulity, and they very seldom teach it enough.

The wisest and most cautious of us all frequently gives credit to stories which he himself is afterwards both ashamed and astonished that he could possibly think of believing. — Adam Smith, Theory of Moral Sentiments (1759)

Whether or not credulity is correlated with intelligence can be debated. The net effect is the same. Many can be molded and led.

Adam Smith’s point was that we all can.

It is simply amazing that Facts mean nothing in a day and age where People have access to more Information available to them in the History of Humanity.

Never discount the Value of Political Bias mixed with willful Ignorance.
