    Sure. But they are not gullible.

    And claiming people can be two things does not refute what I’ve said. For example you can be an ally and also an apologist for those we struggle against.

      Man, they are gullible. Many of them, at least. It’s the same reason why literal billions of dollars are grifted out of them by email and phone scams.

      The marks are the same people in financial scams as in political scams.

        There is no political divide on who is more susceptible to financial scams.

        However, thinking you’re immune or simply too smart to being scammed is a risk factor.,

          Where does that address politics? All that goes over is age, unless I’m missing some continuation or elaboration in a link somewhere.
