The dangerous, self destructive, cognitive defect infecting Trump voters.
Not all Trump voters are stupid. Many are highly intelligent. What they suffer from is a problem with how their brains process information. This problem has plagued the human race throughout history. It has led to some of the greatest tragedies in history.
For a reason I cannot explain, many people will hear something, see something they like, they agree with and they go all in. It is nearly impossible to change their minds These are the people of the human race who are easily infected and misled with propaganda. These are the people who will blindly follow until they destroy themselves. How many times has that happened in history?
I will give you just one example of the cognitive defect the Trump voters suffer from. It could kill many of them.
The Republicans waged a major propaganda campaign against their voters about Obama care. After Obama care was passed millions of Republican voters signed up for it. Many of them got health care for the first time in their lives. Many of them did not know they were signing up for Obama care. Ground zero was the State of Kentucky. Obama care was called something else in Kentucky because the Governor at that time decided Kentucky would run the exchange.
Republican voters were told Obama care was evil, Democrats are evil, they will destroy your way of life, your country. The facts told a different story. Obama care, created by Democrats saved the lives of many Republican voters.
These same voters, voted for Trump and the Republicans who promised them to get rid of Obama care, their health care. They promised their voters to give them something better, never telling them what that would be.
If these Republican voters lose Obama care, many of them will die. They will die believing the people who gave them health care are evil and the people who took it away are great. I fear the only cure for this cognitive defect when it spreads to a large number of people, like it has now, is that they destroy themselves, taking the innocent and sane with them. Then the people rebuild and recover. Mankind has been doing this throughout history.
Obama care is just one example of this cognitive defect. There are many other examples of how the Republican voters brains are not processing information correctly. It is really sad and scary.
