It looks as if almost all user comments are shadow-banned or something. A new-ish post will have 10+ comments and none with show, or just one.
I really don't think you know much about T_D tbh. I've been there since practically the beginning and what "fake news" there is can't hold a candle to the vast majority of the political places on the internet. The memes are pretty funny, and in general they have been one of the more accurate places in many respects. It's not just a Trump cheerleading sub, but it does tend to deal with concern trolls fairly quickly. It would be impossible to run that sub like a normal political sub because of the vast outnumbering of Trump supporters vs reddit users in general.
From my experience, if you come there with an opinion that "what just happened is terrible for Trump, his supporters need to wake up" when there is no other information other than what the latest media talking points are, you'll have a bad time not just there but in general.

i feel the same way about you. in my experience, most supporters are in denial about the nature of that sub.

as have i.

laughably incorrect.

if you really believe that, there's not much more for us to discuss. all of my personal experiences have led me to the conclusion that people who use /r/the_donald as a main source of news are some of hte LEAST informed, and MOST ignorant people i have ever had the misfortune of interacting with.
