Welcome to politcal memes!
These are our rules:

Jokes are okay, but don’t intentionally harass or disturb any member of our community. Sexism, racism and bigotry are not allowed. Good faith argumentation only. No posts discouraging people to vote or shaming people for voting.
2) No misinformation
Don’t post any intentional misinformation. When asked by mods, provide sources for any claims you make.
3) Posts should be memes
Random pictures do not qualify as memes. Relevance to politics is required.
4) No bots, spam or self-promotion
Follow instance rules, ask for your bot to be allowed on this community.
5) No AI generated content.
Content posted must not be created by AI with the intent to mimic the style of existing images

Trump has also posted images of himself as Jesus Christ, which is extremely disrespectful to the conservative Christians that make up a large part of his voting base. And yet that wasn’t a dealbreaker for them.
The point is that “disrespectful” isn’t enough. Trump wasn’t lying when he said he could murder someone in the middle of the street, and still get votes. His voting base is that entrenched.
It isn't enough for him to just be disrespectful. You have to confront them with it in an honest, in-person conversation. Deprogramming is a process, not just a one-off thing. That's what I'm going to be using this post for.
