Podcaster says Trump voters not at fault for opposite-day reversal on promises

What was said

"Those people that voted for Donald Trump, whether it's you or anyone else out there listening who did, you, you have to go off of what you had seen in the administration before and what you had seen in Trump's administration before and pick the least worst option. And I fully understand to this day why people said this is the least worst option. I don't think it should be the fault of people that now the second time around he's literally gone full opposite day on everything. If he had gone opposite day on like 20% of things, all right, people would live with that. But when you're starting wars with Iran and shit like that, or saying like, not the Epstein thing is a Democratic hoax, like, go fuck yourself, bro."

The host defends Trump voters who believed his campaign promises, arguing they made rational decisions based on his first term performance. He contends Trump has reversed himself on essentially all major promises in his second term, citing Iran escalation and dismissing the Epstein files as examples. Russell agrees, noting he himself voted for Trump in 2024 specifically warning his audience the worst-case scenario was war with Iran.
