Trump supporters appear to be the ultimate “pick-mes,” so sure are they that they will never be on the bad side of the person to whom they are feverishly handing unchecked power, as if they have never read history and lack the ability to even ask themselves who among them they would trust with ultimate power.

Ultimately, they’ve decided to entrust the power to prosecute over personal grievances and even kill to the man with infamously thin skin. The petty, vengeful convicted felon and adjudicated fraudster who shows no loyalty to friends or family (except his favored daughter) or ally or co-conspirator. They have already witnessed how he turns on his own people and leaves them to go to prison for him, and still they think they are special.

They alone will be the chosen ones. This is delusional thinking.

His voters suffer from the same delusions of grandeur. We see them daily on social media bemoaning how he could do x to them after they supported him three times, why hasn’t he fixed groceries and why is he deporting the good people who work their farms and why is he taking money from their Medicaid when they voted for him.

They have not yet figured out that he does not care one bit. They are nothing but tools to him. He used them for the last time and he doesn’t need them to like him anymore. Even this indignity is met with groveling by the supporter, and an unsupported confidence that the “president” just doesn’t know about their suffering and as soon as he is told, he will do something to help them.
