The senator said he has "a hard time understanding" why Trump's legal issues don't "seem to be moving the needle" with more voters.

Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) called out the majority of Iowa Republican caucus voters who baselessly believe that President Joe Biden did not win the 2020 election legitimately.
“I think a lot of people in this country are out of touch with reality and will accept anything Donald Trump tells them,” Romney, who announced in September that he is not seeking reelection, told CNN journalist Manu Raju on Wednesday.
About 65% of Iowa caucusgoers said they believe former President Donald Trump’s lie that the 2020 election was “stolen” from him, according to entrance poll data.
I cannot understand how conservatives in the us that do not buy in to the maga talking points can still vote for their party.
They have seen the checks and balances in action so all they need to do is stay home one election cycle to give a clear signal.. this is not the direction they want. This will force the Republican party to face the maga extremists and go back to their normal ways. Which still is not good but at least not beholden to a narcissist wannabe dictator.
You know my favorite part about this? Even a guy who believes that a man who told fortunes by looking at a rock inside his hat one day dug up some golden plates and an angel helped him translate them and then took the plates away and that's why he has to wear magic underwear realizes that Trump supporters are out of touch with reality. (Even if he does qualify it with 'some.')
Is 'some' now a synonym for 'all'? Because if you support the criminal, rapist, racist fascist apologist ex president I can safely say you've lost touch with reality.
I mean, Fox News and right wing radio shows have been pushing disinformation for years. It was there before Trump. I mean, how many people believe Obama is a Muslim? Election denial is just an off shoot of that with many of their propaganda pieces.
Nowadays though there's just a cinematic universe of shows (PragerU, Shapiro, etc) for right wingers to cosplay their "reality" in.
Although, I'll step in and say I don't know if Ben actually is an election denier. I don't think he would be.
I laugh at articles I see which site "independent voters". If you're still claiming to be undecided on Trump in 2023, you're brain dead or full of shit or both. You know exactly who he is by now
These people are out of touch with reality, now, let me tell you about my imaginary invisible friend who will torture us forever if we don't do what the men in robes and hats say he wants and tithe 10% of our income to them.
I have a friend of mine, he's an old man who isn't long for this world... he idolizes Trump and writes off anything negative about him as propaganda, and claims Trump is this genius who outsmarts everyone, that no one "really believes" in the things he's being prosecuted for, and he'll be seen as a Martyr when Joe Biden has him assassinated because the "Blatant mistreatment" he's recieved has made him too sympathetic....
And EVERYTHING he says about Trump has him painted as this Patriotic American Super Hero, this.. Great Man who's five steps ahead...
And that ANYTHING that shows him a negative light is ALL of the Media wokring together on a secret plan to make this Steel Balled Ubermench look foolish...
It's real sad, he's an old man who's usually smarter than this, but... the fantasy that the world will be "saved" while he's still alive, keeps his mouth against Trump's ass

I'm not a Trump supporter, but Mr. Romney, please name me a politician that is serving in our Government who IS in touch with reality. They all have their heads so far up lobbyists asses they wouldn't know it if reality smacked them on the lips.
