Trump Voters Own Him
I expect that the hard core Trump supporters will never turn on Trump. I'm sure Mr. Trump was correct, he could shoot someone and they wouldn't care. I hope I'm wrong, but I fear shooting someone will seem trivial compared to what he actually does.
I hold every voter who did not vote for Hillary responsible for electing Donald Trump. They OWN him. They are responsible for very stupid, immoral, unethical or illegal thing he does. And they can certainly take credit for anything he does well.
And he OWNS the people who voted for him. They are compelled to explain, defend and support his actions and inactions. He supported anything people would cheer for. He claimed he would fix anything and everything to win votes and would do it better and faster than anyone else would or could.
The President-elect is already starting to take back or modify promises. And supporters are hanging with him; many saying they never believed he would actually do all the crazy things he said we would do.
Sorry folks, we are all responsible the the things we say and do. People who are now saying they didn't believe everything Trump said are just proving they are low information voters.
If at some point a voter does decide their vote for Trump was a mistake (however unlikely), I think they should take a vow not to vote in a presidential election for a couple of cycles.
Voting for Trump showed a lack of knowledge. Knowledge about what qualities are needed to lead this country and what qualities Donald Trump would bring to the office. Trump voters who now realize they made a mistake need to take a while and reflect on how and why they missed all the signs he would be completely unsuitable to be President of the United States.
