3. The GOP works hard to demonize Dem leaders, because then their base has an excuse to use violence

Once you demonize a group, murder is sure to follow.

GOP actively supports violence. There is no doubt whatsoever.

She’s incredibly effective at her job. On the flip side, Moscow Mitch is the same. An evil asshole for sure but a master of the game. I wish we had our own version.

They always have to hate someone, so they can make themselves feel superior and self-righteous. It's just so much grasping at self.

Nancy Pelosi is the most powerful woman in government and she is a Democrat, and she is a liberal. That is basically all they know about Pelosi.

They actually hate a caricature of Nancy Pelosi. If you ask any right winger what Nancy Pelosi has actually done or what she stands for, they would not be able to tell you either. They would have some simplistic, stupid sounding talking point, but would absolutely know NOTHING about who Pelosi is and what she has done.

And some in the press have latched on too. Just like what they did to Hillary.

But inability to appreciate what's right about them doesn't really matter. Haters hate whoever they fear.
