Same reason people got attracted to Zuma. He's seen as a man of the people, and in America's case he is seen as the guy who would bring the "real" America and stick it to the establishment. He did none of that of course, but he still maintains a following.

Zuma is seen as a freedom fighter by many, which he was really, whether one likes it or not.

Bloodywood said it very well on their song Gaddaar.

"I see a state turning to Faith,
Faith Turning to Hate
Hate Turning to votes
and Votes turning to Notes."

and that sums up Trump supporters, Republicans in general and even Religious Zealots regardless of the flavor of the religion.
those people are not looking for someone who is for anything, they are looking for someone who is AGAINST the things they are against.

Trump supporters fall for MLM schemes. donate to Churches, believe in "Seed money" and think trickle down economics works.
they get their news from people magazine and can tell you what the latest Celebrity gossip, but they will not be able to tell you basic things about science like how wearing a mask helps stop the spread of an airborne virus.

also they will get triggered by any posts criticizing Trump and start attacking people who make them question themselves, because they don't have the brain capacity to be able to acknowledge that they were conned. and defending him is their entire personality now. they have nothing else, because if they admit they were wrong about Trump and he is the POS we have been saying he is since 2015 that means they made a mistake. and coming to terms with that is simply too difficult.

As I recall, one William Pelham Barr was AG between early 2019 and late 2020, while one Jefferson Beauregard Sessions preceded him from February 2017.

I believe the AG is the head of the DoJ and is a position that requires the sitting potus’ nomination and a Senate confirmation.

What absolute deflection and a load of nonsense. Really. You are projecting words onto me (just own if for once, old man), because you cannot speak anything truthful if it does not fit into your narrative.

You edited your post while I was replying, and I was simply responding to the bit if figured needed a response at the time.

This bit:

The DOJ would need to make a case, and then test it in a court of law. I am sure they are trying really hard to do so, as they have been since before he was elected.

Which, per my reply, can't really be true can it, because for four of the last five and a half years the DoJ was, in fact, Donny's own DoJ?

So you are admitting this is Biden's DOJ? Are you really sure you want to take this position?

The DOJ, or any government institution for that matter, doesn't change merely because the top changes. There are still many factions inside these entities all with their own agendas.

Greggy knows that. He is just being his usual self. But he is trapping himself in his own posts once again. I cannot understand it at all.

Sure and absolutely.

Will you admit it was Donny's DoJ between '17 and '20 and are you really sure you want to take that position?

This thread is beginning to feel like we're about to see local conservatives demanding that folks defund the police.

I'm here for it.

Some people do in fact believe this changes the institutions, unsure if greg believes it or just says it for sake of argument.

I think you'll find the call for decreasing federal law enforcement agencies and boosting local state police.
That won't really fly with the normal defund crowd.
