That’s why he does it too, “nobody is paying attention” when it’s the biggest thing helping to define his political brand.
I think they’re confusing “not paying attention” with “not doing anything.” If the fear is genuine why isn’t there a popular front against Trump? People talk online as though they’re very concerned but you don’t really see anything happening to mount a resistance. Are people signing up to campaign for the Democrats over this, or are they just posting memes about it? Is it that nothing can be done and people feel completely powerless? Maybe everyone is just dug in at this point and we just have to watch this happen. In any case it’s pathetic to constantly hear how worried everyone is about fascist Trump while nothing is done about it. It’s like everyone is just reacting to politics happening and have no political agency of their own.
