Dear Trump Supporters Who Say “You Make Everything About Trump,”
No.
He does.
You do.
Let’s kill the Midwest nice right now. You didn’t follow Trump because of policy. You followed him because he gave you permission. Permission to be petty. To be an asshole in cute old clothing. To blame everyone but yourself. To torch decency and call it strength.
He gave you cover.
Cover to hide your cowardice.
Cover to mask your weakness.
Cover to pretend you’re the victim while you punch down.
You don’t love Trump because he’s brave. You love him because you’re not. He says what you’re too scared to. He breaks what you don’t have the guts to touch. You stand behind him like a kid behind his dad’s giant, diapered ass, talking tough with zero skin in the game.
So no, I’m not obsessed. I’m just done pretending you’re normal.
Sincerely,
Ray
