Now it feels like maybe 5-10%.

This is may be the only aspect where CE has made positive changes over the years.

The vibe in general has changed. Like seriously Trump had so much momentum in 2016, no one really seems to care now. The alt right is kinda dying. Racism itself isn't, but the alt right as a movement is.

It's a complete shithole of racism, anti Semitic crap, homophobia and delusion

Wait... That's exactly what you'd expect from the name

A large portion of people thought Trump was the shakeup to the system that was desperately needed. Turns out it was just a new brand of corruption and elitism.

Same corruption and elitism that's always existed, just brought to the spotlight now for the world to see.

This. People were tricked into voting for something new, when it was the same old crap, but worse.

Also, Trumps 2020 campaign has been terrible, while his run in 2016 was really good honestly. He had a ton of momentum and made Hilary Clinton look like total ****, compared to him literally making up bull**** to try to get at Joe Biden which keeps failing.

Everything Trump said in 2016 was still terrible, but he did it way better than he has since he actually became president.

Trump's biggest strength in 2016 was the lack of policy history. This election we have 4 years worth of terrible decisions and people have seen how little he cares about our Republic. I saw it back in 2016 and voted for Hillary, but some people you have to just let them find out on their own.

Really? Seemed like every topic back then was bashing Trump and praising Clinton.

In 2016, a vote for Trump was a vote against the political establishment.
In 2020, a vote for Trump is a vote for a continued Trump presidency.

There are many good reasons to vote against the political establishment.

There are basically no good reasons to vote to continue a Trump presidency. He's right on about like 4 things, and I think those are mostly by accident.

I think more liberals were willing to accept that some people may have voted for less malicious reasons like creating new jobs.

Anybody who isn't a piece of shit should have hopped off the Trump train by now though.

Im just amazed that people were dumb enough to believe that Donald fucking Trump was going to be an honest politician who works hard for the common people and not big business.

The election didn't expose that people were tired for the "system" it exposed how gullible the people are.

These are both excellent ways to sum it up

I don't think many of them actually trusted trump. I think Michael Moore summed up why people would vote for Trump in 2016 best:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UDL3Yjl31K8

It's worth noting that Moore immediately explained why it was a bad idea after this part of the speech, but that speech, that big "fuck you establishment" is why he won. It really didn't matter if Trump was honest or if he was going to do anything good. It was just supposed to be a hand grenade into the establishment, nothing more thought out than that.

And like most hand grenades, it didn't help much of anything.

Now like 90% of the trolls are tankies, no idea what happened lol.
