Trump voters Darwin Award themselves in many ways but let's hope it is not COVID-19 as that will take out many people in cities statistically who are not Trump supporters too. If they want to die by diabetes and lack of healthcare with their MAGA hats on fine. But don't take the rest of the country with you.

(95,247 posts)And make damned sure they never get a majority in the Federal government again. You are correct, Trump is the symptom of a deep illness, flared up into a disfiguring buboe. Lancing it is the immediate necessary, but more must be done.

(15,124 posts)(actually, that term praises them with faint damnation) have to be taken on face to face in real time. Their ignorance, racism and mean-spiritedness need to be publicly shamed and criticized.
Good people must be recruited to run for every job from township supervisor to POTUS. And, we must pound it into everyone's head that yes, voting is important, but our candidates need our money, our time and our vocal public support BEFORE we vote.
We need to make supporting anyone even remotely like Trump something to be ashamed of.
I'll stop, but yes, sir: we need to "hang together"--- or we will hang separately.
