It's all over Twitter, Facebook, C-D, and Reddit. I walk into a bookstore or a library, and books about Trump are displayed right inside the door. He is everywhere! He's inescapable!
Funny thing, you've probably ran into many Trump supporters, without even knowing it. They were most likely just as cordial to you, as you were to them. The average GOP supporter has not created this world you hate. The media, social media, and those led by it, are the ones creating all the division. Extremists on both sides are guilty, although the ones on the left created, and pushed many to become more extreme.

What are you agreeing? that you are so weak-minded that you are forced to read a tweet and get upset?

I'm in a bad place today and hanging on by my fingertips. There are other things going on, too, but I'll spare you the details. C-D is probably not the best place for me right now, but it allows me to vent, and as I stated earlier, I'm really needing to scream into the ether at the moment. Or punch something. Punching something definitely might help.
So sorry for you and your family.

Pillows are good for punching. Yelling out loud sometimes helps a bit.

It's been a pretty awful day, as I explained in an earlier post. I'm venting. People are allowed to do that. Tomorrow will be better, I hope.

There are quite a number of Trump supporters and right wing extremists here on CityData who can get quite nasty. Please don't try to pretend they are all nice and respectful. It is not just the media's fault. People are responsible for their own behavior.

Have a nice day.

I do not believe you one bit as what you claim is impossible

I grow more of a fan of Musk everyday. I love how folks question the hUUUUgely successful and richest man in the world as though he has no idea what he’s talking about.

Good move.
The party of "love and tolerance" is anything but, when their viewpoints/beliefs are challenged.
