All Mexicans are drug dealing rapists? Syrian refugees are coming to kill us?
I'm 46 years old and I remember a time when stupid people knew they were stupid and kept quiet and let the smart people talk about important things. Things are different now, stupid people are loud and proud and they eat up the fact that a reality TV star is screaming the stupid shit they are thinking. But we still come back to the unfortunate circumstance that they are, in fact, still stupid people.
Consider this: Trump is actually making fun of his supporters but they are just too stupid to realize it. About a month ago he said "I could go out and shoot somebody on 5th Avenue and I wouldn't lose any votes". Now, when a politician says that his followers are so blind that he could commit murder and they'd still vote for him what does that say about what he thinks of them? He's telling you that he thinks you are a moron and that you're too stupid to think for yourself.
Again though, how are things worse now? Is it guns? Do you realize that Obama has signed exactly two pieces of legislation regarding guns and one of them allows you to take a gun onto an Amtrak train and the other allows you to carry a gun in a National Park. Is it that he raised your taxes? Because if that's the problem then kudos to you because federal taxes have only gone up for people who make more than $400,000/year. And it's only gone up 3% for them and that's only on income in excess of $400,000. So if you make $450,000 you paid an additional $1,500 in taxes. Or is it that gay marriage is now legal and that upsets you so much that it's ruined your life. Because if that's the case and you worry so much about what gay people have the right to do I recommend being honest with yourself and maybe telling the guy at the gym that the moment you met him it was love at first site.
