Is it me, or is the GOP paranoid?

[imanamerican63]

It seems like every time I turn on the news, they(the GOP) are saying that the Dems' votes will be fraudulent! Do they know something that we don't know? Or is it another tactic to confuse voters from voting? I know I sound a bit redundant, but wasn't the GOP, who stole the election in 2000 and tried again 2012? Is it our fault that they nominated an idiot to be the GOP leader? So many questions and not enough way to screw the voting public!

1. Paranoid schizoid party

In the paranod-schizoid position,

time stands still
we see things as ‘you OR me’ , ‘your life OR mine’, not ‘you AND me’.
selfishness may save our life
consideration for others is cut off and out
we split people and things into simple categories, depending on whether they will keep us alive or threaten us
the capacity for reasoned thought is lost
apology is impossible – responsibility is so frightening it has to be disowned
huge, life-threatening self-blame is covered up by blaming someone else
people can be afraid they should pay for their sins with their lives – so in order to save their lives, they may deny their sins.
forgiveness is not an option
other people may be felt as dangerous, threatening, intrusive.
other people may be used or manipulated or threatened, as a way of getting rid of terrible anxieties into them and out of the self
other people may be seen as cartoon characters: Perfect Angels or Monsters, Saviours or the Devil himself.
People aren’t always aware that this is how they feel, but it may be possible to deduce it from their behaviour and what they say.

2. Not sure but I think they are just saying need to watch out for election rigging.

And I agree with them. The repubs will try anything to rig the elections.

3. They are not paranoid

A majority of the public really is out to get them. To make them extinct.

4. I think they are projecting

what they have planned to cast suspicion on the Dems.

5. I'm of the opinion that this is their GOTV strategy...

The side effects are going to be violent. Bastards!

6. Trump: "The paranoids are after me! THE FUCKING PARANOIDS ARE AFTER ME!!!!"

Then we'll know for sure.
