35% of the electorate believe Donald J. Trump actually won the 2020 election, that the election was "rigged" and "stolen" from him.
Trump himself keeps repeating what's been called "the Big Lie" in campaign appearances and speeches and his followers knowingly nod their heads.

Groupthink can be dangerous, if not deadly.
Fervent, but misguided Trump followers demonstrated that January 6, 2021 spurred on by Trump's incendiary words:
"Fight much harder" against "bad people," "show strength" and stop the steal!!!!!"

OK Jim, so Trump still lives rent free in your head as he does for most extremist liberals
ReplyDeleteNot exactly. Pushing back agaist Trump and Trumpism comes with a price, that is losing friends or having that friendship reduced to mere politeness. Still, I can't type on a keyboard and ignore this menace to our country. Extreme liberal? I doubt that since I've only slipped into partisanship since Trump's slide down the elevator in 2015.
DeleteIs it true that Tad Hasse is hung like a bear?
ReplyDeleteYea… a gummy bear!
