The future is not bright for him nor his followers. People who it seems are too blinded by their hatred of others to notice their noses being cut off right in front of their own eyes...
Please do keep in mind that while it may be "half the US population" (it's not), it's definitely not half the world population. An absolute majority of the world is looking at the USA in utter disgust.
This is literally the exact same thing Trump supporters say about Democrats, that they only reason with emotion and can't use facts or logic.

He's actually relatively popular in India (https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2020/01/08/how-people-...), and also in China (can't find a better source than https://www.quora.com/Why-is-Trump-popular-in-China, but if you know many mainland Chinese you could ask them), which make up a significant chunk of the global population.
In the US it's generally true on both sides, because your politics are ridiculously "team" centric.
A lot of democrats can't be reasoned with, with regards to their party's policies. The major difference is that the Trump "camp" takes it to an absurd level of cognitive dissonance and at this point, either you know what I'm talking about already, or it's not worth my time and energy to explain it here (sorry).
You mean the people so blinded by hatred that they attack, burn and destroy the shops and residences of uninvolved parties? The people so blinded by hatred they can't even give the president credit for making peace between multiple middle eastern countries, and bringing back the soldiers that have been reponsible for thousands of innocent deaths there? The people who march down streets chanting "fuck you Jesus!"?
I'd argue it's still a better outcome than if only one side is allowed to make broad generalizations about groups based on small groups of extremists within it, while the other side is silenced.
- Ignoring "facts and logic"
- Suppressing free speech
- Being hateful
- Blindly following mainstream media
- Being agents of foreign influence
Did you see the part where the person calling all Trump supporters full of hate was upvoted while the comments I made highlighting some hateful acts by non-Trump-supporters was heavily downvoted? Maybe not literal silencing, but seems people here would definitely rather only hear one side of the story.
There is a tremendous difference between silencing, disagreeing with someone, and only listening to one side of the story.
