(10,476 posts)It's natural to feel things, to stop for a moment and wonder "are we in the right?"
That's what separates us from the filth in Camp Trump, people who just tick a box without thought, defend the man reflexively, and generate the tons of hate hat we deal with daily. We question and re-question ourselves, we hold our party leaders to the fire, and make sure we're still on the right track.
Demoralization sucks, but fight through it, and you come out better and stronger every time.

(22,976 posts)It's easier for them to surrender their will, and just shout "USA, USA, USA," among other unsavory things-- in a deranged child's comic-book view of the world, its issues and its people.
Their media choices dis-informs them by concocting information, outright lying, leaving out crucial facts, etc. Content in their ignorance, they are NOT going to change, ever.

(11,746 posts)"Both sides do it" was never anything but lies and disinformation, a tactic to demoralize us so that we won"t vote. We know Putin also backed the radical left who perpetual insist it is their duty to proliferate "conservative" disinformation.

(22,976 posts)When the fucking PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES pulls the insane shit that he has (meeting with Putin IN PRIVATE, for Christ's sake), and all it's thoroughly documented, no matter how much his cult followers delete and edit information.
