“The first thing for me was he didn’t release the Epstein files. They’re even acting like they didn’t exist,” he said, before moving on to his other grievances. “And, of course, they’re sending Israel and Ukraine all of our tax dollars just like the numb-nuts before him did. Putting America last, and now he’s blaming the beef farmers for the price of beef.”
Mitchell added, “Hey, I’m not biased, man. He talked a good game; he tricked me. I was fooled. I admit it.”
“Yeah, I do think that Donald Trump is that beast of Revelation 13:3.”
That’s how I see it.
There’s also something that folks forget about people that get suckered in like this: It’s not their first rodeo.
Imagine you’re someone that gets below average marks in school, makes a lot of simple mistakes, and has to work to meet average expectations in life. All this gets called out and checked a lot by people that seem to be having an easier time at everything. A lesson the world teaches people like this is: never admit you screwed up, because maybe this time nobody noticed. It’s an environment where you just get emotionally beat up if you don’t protect yourself. So, to me at least, it’s not a surprise that a lot of people react to being called out by defending their ego every way they know how.
That’s a fresh and compassionate perspective, thank you.
