You think people hear about “all this weird shit he’s doing” and somehow that hides… Something else? And then people don’t realize how aweful he is because of “all this weird shit”???
This has to be the stupidest line of thought ever.
It’s not just two things, it’s multiple things. Daily. It’s absolutely hard to keep up with, and then hard to keep caring when you run out of fucks to give. Most people disengage
Have you ever done something wrong, or that people perceive as wrong, and thought to yourself “I should go piss in the public fountain so that people will forget about it”?
Yes. In fact, there’s a very old joke about fucking one goat… People often focus on one thing to the exclusion of others. Ask the average american to name 10 trump atrocities, and they likely can’t, despite thousands of (documented!!!) episodes of ugliness.
Can you name 10 atrocities? I assume so. If most people can’t it’s not because there have been so many it’s because they don’t generally pay as much attention as you.
And if you can - then the “distraction” isn’t working now is it?
“They’re just distracting us” has to be the weirdest thing people say about politics. “They’re looking stupid to distract us from their stupid?”
Who can’t pay attention to more than one thing?
Most people? That’s why he’s about to be president again.
I honestly don’t understand this line of thought.

It’s ridiculous.
