2. I was just thinking that after seeing that clip of that obese MAGAt in Boston threaten
a local report at a rally FOR NO REASON! The reporter was just standing there texting on his phone and the guy just walks up to him and starts bitching about "what happened" to Rand Paul after the RNC rally and making ugly threats. They are all a bunch of tinderboxes just waiting for the final flame to set them off into a murderous rage.
I really fear for this country, and what really scares me is that this was in my own backyard. I though living in a liberal city in a liberal state would serve as some protection, but they are here too. Maybe not as many as in other places, but there are enough of them to cause a lot of death and destruction. |

3. Why hate when it's easier to love?
I never could understand that. So much energy wasted. So negative. I vehemently dislike mf45 but it hard to hate because I Still want to believe in humanity. We humans aren’t so primal are we?

13. I believe that humans are that primal. Thin veneer of civilization.

4. Hatred is a dead end.
Leads to unrest, abuse, wars, and holocaust. Trumpers are a cult of hateful dead-enders.

5. Guy down the street has a yard full of Trump signs. He stands on the curb and scowls as you go by.
He's all puffed up and looks like he's just waiting for someone to challenge him.
This is a super Red district. |

9. At did that to some Proud Boys when they tried to instigate
violence at a peaceful protest in San Diego 3 years ago. It was beautiful to see their lack of reaction. I don't think they were prepared to handle that. I knew they wouldn't and that's why I did it. It was better than giving them the finger.

7. They must be tired of all that winning; Trump said it would happen
Can you imagine getting everything you ever wanted out of the political system, and wind up with Donald Trump, Mike Pence, a pandemic stalking the nation, and no college football? Gotta be an empty feeling.

8. They don't know why they are mad, or who they are mad at.
All they know is, they're pissed off at the world and everyone is their prisoner.

14. Hate is all they have left. Their logic and narrative does not work any more..
That's why they don't believe in science hitting them square in the face. It continually proves them wrong. and And AND they hate to be wrong.

11. Lots of them are masochists
Some are sado-masochists.
Trump is a sadist, along with all his other psychopathy. Did you ever hear the joke about the masochist who yelled "Beat me !" and the sadist who replied, "NO !" |

15. After years of only Fox "News" and National Hate Radio
They are thoroughly convinced that "libbruls and soshalists" are out to get them. They have been spoiling for a fight all these years. Not one of the enemies promised to them by the right wing media has materialized as a threat, and they are frustrated by the impatience, the waiting, and--worst of all--the creeping, nagging suspicion that they have been duped and lied to by politicians and media that they trusted implicitly as their friends and allies.
