Calls his supporters "weaklings". Bold move, let's see how that works out...
His supporters love abuse. They will change to fit his vision.
I don't think it's abuse they love exectly, it's being told exactly what to think and how to act. It removes a huge amount of cognative load and uncertainty and leaves them feeling more sure of themselves.
Every one of those supporters is sitting there thinking "he means everybody but me!"
It could create a situation where a supporter doesn't want to be weak, so they completely shift their stance - almost denying their previous stance. I just threw some popcorn in the microwave for the upcoming show...
Reminder from Veritaseum not to eat microwave popcorn unless your body needs more PFAs

I'm hoping PFAS have a preserving quality that will keep my skin wrinkle free long after death.
You don't have to buy popcorn like that, you can just stick some bulk popcorn in a brown paper bag. No PFAs in that.
Right??? I don't understand buying it prepackaged when it is so much cheaper and takes 2 second to put some popcorn in a bag yourself.
I was today's year old when I learned that was possible. I just use the whirlypop thing.
I keep reminding people that if he holds on to power past the end of his term, he won't need votes to do it. So his supporters are no longer useful to him.
He doesn't care. If he can't get reelected he doesn't really want another republican to get the office. That way he can always say " look how everything fell apart after me"
They're clearly all masochists so it'll probably work well.
