It was Just Easier to Hate Trump
By Petra North
An observation frequently attributed to Mark Twain, that “it is easier to fool people than to convince them they’ve been fooled,” is the most accurate explanation I can find of where we are today.
I will only add this one caveat: It is only easy to fool people when they willingly choose to be foolable, when they allow others to tell them what’s true and what’s not. Because it’s infinitely easier to do that.
It was easier to believe Trump was uncouth than to take the risk of being kicked out of the Cool Kids’ Group, the group that includes Hollywood stars, Jimmy Fallon, Rachel Maddow, and Washington cocktail parties.
It was easier to believe Trump urinated on the bed of Russian prostitutes than to believe Hillary Clinton had so little respect for the American citizens in clandestine jobs that she created an email server in her bathroom to get around the rules every other tate department official had to follow, thus exposing and endangering the lives of these officers; hired a company to create the story about the Russian prostitutes to distract the public from her illegal server; was the opposite of a champion of women, evidenced by her vicious attacks on the multiple women who accused her husband of assaulting them; and was unlikable, partly because of a grating speaking voice, but also because she had a history of treating everyone around her with disrespect and disdain, often humiliating subordinates.
It was easier to hate Trump than to believe that what the progressives said they wanted to do to America was actually what they would do to America.
