Even though Trump campaigned on this EXACT thing I THOUGHT he would just Target BROWN CHILDREN AND QUEERS!

Right? My first thought was "Off the rails? This is exactly where the rails always were heading, you just decided to lay down on them."

That's only the beginning.

If you wait a little there even won't be rails anymore to go off. That's what you voted for.

two-time Trump voter and Department of Agriculture researcher

How could you be a researcher and still vote for science denialists? How??

I unfortunately know too many people of this type who definitely should have known better.

My rough sketch hypothesis is that they have some kind of dark triad disorder going on. Then they get taught the scientific method which makes them capable of looking at themselves for the first time in their lives and lets them see how horribly horrible they are. So this just drives them insane.
