You left out the MOST IMPORTANT COMPONENT to this feeling of chaos. THE MEDIA! The media is complicit in escalating non-stories to stir up unrest and fear in the uninformed. All the stories they ignored or covered up during the Obama Administration kept the masses calm, now that their party is out, they have to gin up fear out of nothing to keep the rhetoric of the left alive until the next election.
Wrong. That is fake fake fake. That is a Trump demonization and deflection tactic. Worked during the primaries and campaign, but it will not work any longer. Contrary to popular alt-right opinion, liberals do not follow CNN and MSNBC as religiously as they follow Fox and Breitbart. I criticize those outlets as much as anyone else. We often laugh at the stupidity and partisanship. But the alt-right never ever ever criticizes or contradicts the media altars at which they worship.
Truth hurts. The left is unhappy because President Trump is implementing the hope and change that our nation desperately needs, unlike Obama's hope and change which got us to where we're at.
So tell me, what was wrong with our country before? At Trump's inauguration speech, he inundated us with this doomsday scenario about how horrible the country is and how only HE could fix it. Sure, our country wasn't perfect. But I think it's pretty great, and it was great before he arrived. Of course, Obama can't take the credit for it, at least not all of it. Presidents from previous administrations have done a lot, American workers, industry, technology, and our great country in general. But our country didn't need saving at all, not from Trump or anyone else. It has problems like it always does, but everyone of us has problems we need to address. And no politician will fix them, no matter what they promise.
Hmmm maybe they love this country and dont like whats going on....
Building the flag, rioting, hiring refugees over Americans, allowing refugees into the country without proper vetting, creating sanctuary cities to harbor illegal immigrants.
The chaos is coming from who it ALWAYS comes from. Lefties and the Democrats.
Yes sir. A christian comes out to exercise his right to speak and gets hit in the head with a metal object because a bunch of left wing scum dont agree with his choice for president and the scum even mocks him after he is injured. The left thrives on chaos and riots and so called "protests" because they cant win at the polling booth
I totally agree, but expected this would happen when a bozo ascended to the presidency as if he was crowned king and started acting like a dictator, as well as appointing unqualified people to all kinds of positions.
The 75% of the country who are not members of his cult simply are not going to take it. Maximum overload. And it is not only 'liberal elites.' It is a lot more. More than the Tea Party had in their fight. People who have never made a sign, had a cause, protested, marched, or stood up for anything are on their feet. This is not going away no matter how many in the cult poo-poo it as a passing fad.
Thank you for identifying the more extreme Trump supporters as members of a cult. That's what's been niggling at the back of my mind for some days now, but I couldn't quite place it, being (deliberately?) distracted by the rapid-fire events of the last nine days. That was deliberate, too, of course - "Hey, look at this smoke and ignore that fire over there!", as another put it elsewhere. And while we're looking at the colorful smoke, the fire becomes a conflagration.
It's easy to rely on a perceived strong leader to make decisions that you are sure are in your and everyone else's best interests, and to feel safe and protected, and to attribute evil or just simple wrong-headedness to those who would question that leader and that blind following. That's how dictators - and cult leaders - come to power and retain their power.
The FLDS comes to mind. Despite Warren Jeffs being a convicted pedophile, liar and thief, his defenders continue to idolize him as God's anointed Prophet and deliberately tune out all evidence to the contrary.
Poor deluded souls - and poor souls who suffer because of this delusion. Thankfully, the Trumpites do not yet control the media or freedom of speech or assembly. I would not be surprised if these essentials of democracy's days are numbered, however. They are already under attack by Trump's unquestioning supporters.
So yes, it's time to speak out, to gather, to write letters and contact your representatives at all levels of government and stand for our democratic ideals of representative government. These freedoms are guaranteed by our Constitution, and we will not let them go, no matter how many cultists try to destroy them.
The entire fabric of America appears to be unravelling with each passing day,as the chaotic reign of Trump rampages through our collective sensibilities like an unloved,dreaded season.
Is anyone else feeling the tragic,dystopian regression of the United States,as Trumps repugnant reign gains unholy ground?
I think we may be headed for a revolution!! (You can hear the clicks of the roller coaster car as it slowly makes it way to the top of the peak....)
I havent ever seen this amount of seperation amoung ppl,its like they are all being controlled!! (The trump puppets) and nothing he does thats BAD will register with them as being bad.. (Like his RUDE nature towards others)
With each passing day, I only sense liberals going off the rails with more incoherent rants.

Mass hysteria urged on by false propaganda is having an impact.
Obama has spoken up and along with Putin egg the dems on to oppose trump.
First time a former president joined forces with an enemy, Putin, to undermine the US government.
Real change is characterized by turmoil and trump is delivering the change obama said he would bring and never did, as obama was more interested in installing an unwanted socialist agenda at the sacrifice of those who he pretended to support..
