Bill Kristol on why Trumpists are upset



Bill Kristol
@BillKristol

Why are Trumpists upset? The search warrant was approved by a judge not Joe Biden. But if nothing incriminating is found, Trump won't be indicted, or if indicted of course wouldn't be convicted by a jury of his peers. Trump supporters are upset because they suspect...he's guilty.

As I see it, MAGAts will assume that all evidence is fabricated by Hillary Clinton, George Soros, and Hunter Biden.

No use trying to apply any sense to these people. They were sending Alex Jones $800000/day at one point. They are completely detached from reality.

If they had confidence in his innocence they'd be pre celebrating the egg on the Biden admin's face.

Twitter, Facebook, Reddit, all the social media inhabited by MAGAts is losing their shit!!!

There is a LOT of conversation about arming yourself, lock and load, the Second Civil War is here, time to start shooting libs, and on and on and on.

I'm an old infantry soldier, 30 years in the Army, two tours in the bush in Vietenam. I am no stranger to armed violence, having been in more gunfights than I can count. And I am heavily armed -- as are several other Democrats in my red, rural VA county. We have a group of III Percenters in the county who frequently confront anyone they know to be or identify as a Democrat. The are raving tonight on the Twitter and Facebook accounts and I suspect on their private Telegram account. I'm going tomorrow to buy another 400 AR-15 rounds, 50 shotgun rounds, and 100 or so rounds for my two pistols. Each of my three vehicles has a pistol under the front seat. Tomorrow, I'm adding an AR-15 and shotgun to the vehicle I'm driving.
