Those Trump people are so damned stupid - but sadly too many of their followers are even more stupid.

To paraphrase George Carlin...
"Think of just how dumb the average Trump supporter is.
Then realize that 50% of them are stupider than that."

And to go way back to an earlier election, reported on a predecessor to this board:

"And then they voted."

Yes, I know, "their", "his" and "our" are not pronouns, but possessive adjectives. And without checking, I'm sure that several occurrences of "this", "that" and "those" were also demonstrative adjectives.

And predictably there was the litany of replies along the lines of "everyone knows that what she really meant to say was (insert something bearing absolutely no resemblance to what she actually said)".

If I'm ever asked to state "my pronouns", I'm going to say "thou" and "thee". :mrgreen:
