Haven’t these people ever had a relationship (relative, coworker, neighbor, etc.) who was a manipulative, lying weasel???
Most of us have had the misfortune to have known someone like that and most of us have learned from our mistakes. Or maybe dems always believe, because they want so very much to believe, when the guy says “Of course I love you honey. I’ll never hit you again. I brought you some flowers. Tell me you love me, too.” when the flowers were bought with the kids’ milk money that he stole out of her purse and it’s a virtual guarantee that he’ll hit her again within the week.
Maybe if we studied the psychology of abused women and figured out what keeps them coming back and what it takes to break the cycle, we could break the cycle of democrats voting against their own interest.
Good assessment and analogy.
