Trump has been a con man all of his life, so why do people think he would change?

@wingsofpurityofficial4031 The very definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. Voting for Trump reflects that in so many ways. Thousands of people had been victimized by Trump in some way, like contractors not getting paid to investors getting screwed out of their money.

@wingsofpurityofficial4031 I understand what you are saying. The average person in the USA has fallen behind. Most peoples wages had been pretty stagnant since the early 1980s. One of my friend's father was working at Circuit City in the mid 1980s, and he was making about $50,000 a year. I know another guy whose father worked at some company, he was making over $50k a year. Fast forward to 2019, for most people wages have gone up very little. I know the cost of living or inflation from 1980 to 2019 is about 250% if you gauge it with the cost of oil or gasoline. $20 back in 1980 was a lot of money, a cafeteria lunch in 1983 was about 50 cents. $20 would buy you 2 weeks worth of groceries. A backpack was like $5 to $10. We had a lot of technological changes in 1980s, like computers and robotics were becoming more and more mainstream. I know industrial robots were widely employed in the 1980s, resulting in many people getting canned from manufacturing jobs. Programmable computers coupled with industrial robots and other industrial machinery results in more productivity. At the same time, it lead to mass unemployment and of resulting in the lowering of wages. I guess, a lot of people are angry, so they voted for Trump expecting something different, because no one was helping them for years.

@wingsofpurityofficial4031 Like all con artists, they tell their audience what they want to hear, and rip them off in the end.
