Welp, it’s not exactly a group that self selects for thoughtfulness and patient self reflection

    They do, but it is the only reward they have ever gained from that allegiance and they will be damned if got nothing from it. Gotta save face here.

    Oh they know but it's a power trip for them "look at those demented lefties being angry at us, that means we are doing something right".

    I think they want this, they have thought for decades they have been repressed because they cant hate you based on choices that only effect you or your personal things, or even better the color of your skin. Now this gives them all the thing to point at "Look they are writing articles about how much they hate us and make our lives harder, we are like the modern slaves"

    I have a mental note in my head of the houses in my area that currently or formerly flew Trump signs. Because reasons.

    I agree with the rough sentiment but this author might have one of the most condescending written tones I've ever read. Truly, truly doing nothing for the cause.

    But if you haven’t left [Trump] yet, you are either a total moron who shouldn’t be voting,

    Yes, because testing for intelligence to vote worked out for everyone in the past.

    I think they do. I recently saw a guy in a very anti-trump city, wearing a red hat with white text. It said "Trump was right about everything".

    You think that guy bought that hat, if he didn't know how hated trump is, and how hated he'd be for wearing it in a city like this?

    I don't think they care. If they know, they probably let that fuel their victim complex.
