“The browns are coming to rape your women, steal your hard-earned consumer goods, beat you to death, and burn everything down.”
That’s the message that resonates the most with Republican voters. It’s galvanizing and makes them “circle the wagons” emotionally, so it’s no wonder that they use it again and again and again. According to Fox, NYC, Chicago, and LA have all been burned to the ground at least three times each in the last decade. And they’ve been pointing to Europe as a racist’s cautionary tale for at least as long.
Yeah, but they’ve spent literally 25 years shitting on France because they asked for evidence after 9/11…
It’s been beat deep into Republican voters heads that France is bad and they don’t like France. They fucking renamed French fries, “freedom fries” never caught on, but you still get looks/comments if you don’t only say “fries” when ordering them.
It’s not like one cognitive dissonance is enough to wake them up, but this is a complete 180 on a main talking point out of nowhere, I can’t think of a single good thing trump has ever said about France.
Republican voters won’t change their views over this stuff, but when faced with uncomfortable truths like this, their default is to check out of the conversation. This won’t motivate them to vote to save the French, this will make them tune out to any future political messaging, and not vote.
They’ll just pretend there isn’t an election rather than have to use critical thinking to try and justify it
Burned to the ground the same number of times Trump has completely obliterated Iran’s nuclear program.
