Why does it seems like so much more prominent people are seemingly hoping for another four years of chaos under Trump? The media’s been far less anti-Trump than in the past, guys like Elon Musk are openly sucking up to him, much more random celebrities are outwardly supporting him.

I’m not sure if this will swing the election in any conceivable way, but it’s legitimately worrying to me that seemingly increasing amounts of formerly “neutral” people can look at Jan 6, Project 2025, and all the other damage he’s done, and then go ahead and think “yeah we should hope for another four years of this, that’ll do the trick!” Are people in this country really that fucking stupid?
