So Trump lost, but we're still talking about why so many people voted for him. And story seems to be that millions thought "We feel disrespected by liberal elites, who think we're stupid. So we're going to own them by ... 1/
voting for a corrupt, dishonest, incompetent guy who barely conceals his contempt for his own supporters." I honestly have no idea how we're supposed to deal with this 2/
To say that many Trump supporters basically engaged in a massive self-own sounds condescending; yet what could be more condescending than pretending that this isn't exactly what happened? 3/
