Sure they did. They voted for the guy who airstriked an Iranian general in his first term. You might have caught the rampant social media commentary about how people were certain they'd be drafted soon. Of course, we didn't follow up with an invasion but it's a clear acknowledgement that acts of war are absolutely on the table.

His relationship with Netanyahu didn't start Jan 2025, nor did the eventual showdown over nuclear weapons precipitated by our withdrawal from the arms treaty.

I know that is a lot of thinking to ask of his voters so here's an easy one - it's very obvious when the dude is lying. Anyone hearing him talk about being the president of peace should have instantly known it was no different from claiming we'd all soon be rich beyond our imagination. Or that covid would be over in a week. Or that any election he lost was 'stolen'. Anytime he describes himself as being the "most/greatest anything in history". Whenever someone asks a critical question and he freaks out (sadly for Trump voters, Joe Rogan isn't capable of this).

Many Americans didn't vote for Trump at all, so to the extent this is true, it still can't be accurately summarized as "American voters are fine with being robbed blind." Maybe some still are, but they don't speak for everyone.

Huh? When were we talking about Americans who voted against him?
