My mom pretty much had an existential crisis over this when she made a friend at work and her husband turned out to be Trump supporter. And this is in Canada. It makes you wonder where girls like that even find guys like that.

Trump supporters in Canada are especially stupid.

I've seen Confederate flags flying off the backs of pick up trucks on the west coast of Canada... Amazing how stupid people can be

When you realize it's about racism and not politics you understand why they are like this and it's not surprising.

America does supply the best racist symbols after WW2 era Germany

Like the 'Thin Blue Line Coward's Swastika', it's really not exclusive to a single country. It just means they have fascist beliefs, are probably racist, and want others to know!

don’t tel them Canada doesn’t have a president. Or god save the queen on their toonies.

I think German Trump supporters in Germany take the crown: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/09/07/world/europe/germany-trump-far-right.html

They even exist in Japan because he was "tough" on china

I've met a Belgian Trump supporter. The world just continues to surprise us eh?

There's no limit to who will fall prey to their particular algorithms and confirm their particular biases. Mix that in with an identity rooted in the bigotry and biases they inherit from their parents.

That and stupidity. People are so fucking stupid.

Japan does have a history of siding with Nazis, after all.

When you've been conditioned all your life by society (and conservatives) to believe that your primary function is to be a baby factory, and you know you only have a finite amount of time to be a baby factory before you're old and busted and cast aside, you do whatever you can to land someone stable enough to marry, regardless of their politics.
