How many more American institutions can tRump dis before his cult reacts negatively?

Yesterday, it was our criminal justice system, which happens to include the police, who I thought were off-limits to criticism, even in tRump world. Before that, it was NFL players, who are considered to be sports royalty in our nation’s national religion, football. The list goes on and on. If not a daily occurance, at least a weekly occurance where tRump insults and demeans one American institution or another.

What’s next, the military? Churches? Straight marriages with kids? NASCAR?

Apparently, no one is safe from tRump’s venom, except for Putin and white supremacists.

His followers seem hell bent on cheering his every attack on what makes America America. Exactly what do these people want America to be? North Korea?

especially those "magical constitutional sheriffs" are in any way associated with the courts and judges and fair trials.

They all believe that the police should be able to arrest "trouble makers" and knock heads together and shoot criminals.

They also believe that "innocent until proven guilty" is just coddling thugs and criminals. That defendants don't deserve "rights".
