My mind's made up - don't confuse me with facts -Trump cultists

Comments from the people waiting in the rain in in Charlotte, North Carolina to hear Trump at his latest rally -

“I bet $500 they are lying,” he(Terry Pennington) said. “I bet it was a liberal who did it. Have you stopped to think why those bombs were only sent to high-level Democrats? They are trying to make it look like Donald Trump is encouraging terrorism.”

He added: “The truth is, the liberals are the terrorists.”
His wife agreed.

“It seems like a lot’s been planted to make it look like a Trump supporter did it,” said Carrie Pennington, 48

And -

Kathy Chenette, 62, a realtor from Mooresville, North Carolina, said she had read on Twitter that the same configuration of stickers on the back of the van had been photographed on the side of the van.

“This was obviously Photoshopped,” she said. “I think it’s a distraction against the invasion of illegal immigrants at the border. It’s all set up by Soros"

Their insistence on believing only what they want to believe regardless of facts or proof just boggles the mind!

l get confused. So l go to what l know, and that’s what trump says”. Absolutely no interest in finding out what the facts are. Apparently the truth is what they are comfortable believing. Scary!
