Ignorance and Willful Stupidity

It’s really hard for me to blame seriously ill people for their maladies.  Everyone has some sort of malady, and we are all part of the human adventure which includes maladies.  We need to be as kind and understanding with each other as possible.

What is more difficult for me to understand is when we look at a mentally disabled person and décide that their vision of reality is the one we want to adopt for the nation.  They can’t even recognize their illness. 

Donald Trump has proven over and over again in his lifetime, and, for the last four years particularly, has demonstrated behaviors that are outlandish even by the most extreme of standards. 

He can’t help himself.  He can’t even recognize the sickness.

But, what about the Republican voters?  Where is their judgement and their ability to observe and think?

As a lifelong Republican, I am appalled at their ignorance and willful stupidity.
