They've ALL been carrying Trump's toe nail clippers since June 2015. Suddenly, OH, well Trump should not have said this, or Trump should not done have that.... and well, yeah, he maybe did something impeachable but he's leaving now so unity and kumbaya.
And it isn't just politicians and commentators. It is everyday people. I had to slap down a neighbor who tried to claim she was never for Trump in spite of the fact there is a photo of her wearing a Maga hat on her facebook page.
It isn't that I'm surprised, but it is just really breathtaking...

(9,670 posts)If you think you've found one and can corner it, ask them if they trusted Hillary to lead our country. They may be able to psych themselves up to diss Trump, but at a cellular level they've been conditioned to hate Hillary. That'll be their tell.

(32,005 posts)A newspaper in another town not far from me (in PA) printed an interview of one of its residents who was visited by two FBI agents ... apparently he was tracked down as one of the rioters who was inside (or near) the Capitol Building on Jan.6.
I wish the paper had not given this whack job a free platform to air his warped views, but anyway.
His whole tone was that of I just did what any patriot would have done in a kind of perplexed way, as if he was trying to be humble, but I got a weird vibe from it. Then he claimed he was going to accept whatever came his way in regards to his future with dignity and acceptance (???) and that the whole experience was bringing him closer to Christ.
I havent been able to wrap my mind around the crazy for years, now, and this whole line of reasoning by these seditious assholes that its bringing them to Christ just confirms my belief that these people are beyond help ...
