They Just Don't Seem To Be Able To Accept The Truth

They can't accept that Trump and his sycophants made a disastrous horrible agreement with Iran. They can't handle that Trump is a total and complete embarrassment to this country. Now the paint is peeling off the bottom of the reflecting pool, and they will stick up for dear leader because he can do no wrong. It is amazing to watch the Pied Piper go to work on his little children and have them believe that he is great. It truly, truly blows my mind how these people continue to be conned.

Remember, even decades later, after his resignation and Watergate, Nixon was still defended by a significant percentage of Americans.
