Im really not, that's the average US voter. Idk yeah you can call them far right but then half the country is far right. And his point was that it's a false media narrative. Completely backwards, it's literally the mainstream media that works extremely hard to sell these "far right" positions as moderate.

    Yeah, you're absolutely buying into the propaganda. The average voter is not saying we should bomb black neighborhoods, the far right is. The far right is not half the country. You're being led to believe it is because the far right has captured mainstream media and are trying to lead you to believe that their position is the moderate one, but its all smoke and mirrors. You've bought their propaganda hook, line, and sinker.

    No i dont watch mainstream media, i go to people's homes for dinner and that's what they say. They just wish trump was more prudent with saying those things out loud.

    Ah, so you're hanging out with the far right and assuming your anecdotes paint the whole picture.

    No, my anecdotes are supported by the fact trump got elected twice. Once you leave either coast, the whole interior of the country is majority far right. Maybe Minnesota is different, that's one state ive never been there myself.

    He won via a fraction of the voting population under very suspicious circumstances. That's not a compelling argument.

    Okay well then dig into the details, like the anecdote in OP or by talking to people in the US and getting to know them.
