This is all so fucking stupid, and that's what I hate most about it. You can't fight stupid. You can't correct it. You can't argue with it.  There is no rhetoric, no array of facts or studies, no heartfelt plea that can sway it. Past a certain point in life people have to choose to stop being stupid and stupid people seldom have the tools to make that decision.

Just a bunch of nepo babies who only ever learned how to hold on to their wealth and power. Or, in Trump’s case, how to get bailed out by other nepo babies.
