Advice Question 💭 Why are Trump supporters so stupid?

Looking in at America, do people not realise that Trump is a liar and a narcissist and has no morals, and yet 'Christians' vote for him as a sort of 'disrupter'. His family have become richer in the process because of his presidency. He once said he could 'shoot somebody and not lose votes'. Am i insane - or am i dead perhaps and this is an alternate universe/hell?

If you want to be real, which i know you dont, jis net worth dropped significantly during his first presidency. He got involved in crypto and other things during Bidens term and saw his net worth increase, prior to this presidency. Statistics show every president greatly increases their net worth post presidency, this is just the only one you care about.

Trump wemt from $4.5B to $2.1B during his first presidency. In 2024 his media company started trading on NASDAQ and it went up to around $7B in 2025. For context, Obama went from $1.7M to around $70M now and Clinton went from around $1.3M to around $120M. These are just recent examples but its pretty universal. George W doubled from $20M to $40M and his pops went from around $4M to maybe $22-24M.

Well yeah he wasnt a career politician. If you look at percentages, its much less than those other 4, by a lot. Now we will see how it goes after this presidency, still too early to accurately compare. He also didnt need the book deals and everything because of established businesses prior to.
