But looking at the absolutely bonkers reasoning some people seem to have for supporting the likes of Trump and the insane theories they are willing to swallow without resistence, I'm starting to see how that scene is probably more close to real life than I'd have given it credit for. Man, I don't recognize this place anymore sometimes.
