US doesn't have 'Democracy' and likely never did. What you have is a show where the Epstein class manipulates the population. A real Democracy requires enlightened citizens that know how the world looks like. All information in US are manipulated by power-people, so Mericans can only know about and vote for the two sides of the same circus that keeps having the same policies.

What we see now is the real face of those in power, not some 'maga' group that had little say in who wins or what opinions they (they are just fed the right information, and US democracy is proven to not work).

The whole idea of the 'superdumb maga fascist' are likely fabricated and exaggerated through a shitload of selective video clips in one of the many propaganda campaigns always running. However, a large part of the maga voters were all those ordinary rebellious people that saw the US corruption, don't want wars and all that, and had to believe in Trumps lies to change direction, or continue with the smiling war-psychos from the Dem puppet group. However, Trump was himself just manufactured consent and everything Trump does now where scripted years ago. The Elites need someone to crack the current system so they can fight China, save their power and Trump is a standard 'bad cop' and a standard fallguy that the elite can point to afterwards.

Mericans are always pushed around and manipulated, always.
