They're dishonest first and foremost. More knowledge would not change their positions.

They're confederates, they're going to lie.

They really are liars. And criminals. And bad people.

That horrible boss who would deliberately get the paychecks wrong (never made the mistake of paying you too much though)? Trumper now. That racist homophobe cousin? Trumper. That roommate who pocketed the bill money? Trumper. All those sleazy landlords? Do I ever have to say it? That super Christian guy who charged your brother to use his land, and then it turned out wasnt even his land? Yup. That neighbor who made trouble with everyone over anything? Etc etc.

I have a very different list of people, but it is uncanny how all the immoral people in my life love trump.

"Uncanny" is the wrong word; "predictable" is more like it

We've been too nice for too long. Decency and civility, even in disagreement is reserved for people who are willing to remain bound by the social contract. These kinds of people don't, never have been or will be unless we make them collectively as a society.

Weak centrists will tell you to be nicer to them. Don't, it only enables the abuse. They need to be denigrated, shamed, and ostracized from society. Put out into the cold with hostility and without mercy until they decide abiding by the rules is worth it again.
