The whole opposing Obama anywhere and everywhere, if he said water was wet, they would disagree.

Doing this for eight years has motivated a range of people that are otherwise too ignorant or too fringe to involve themselves in politics. This range has combined into a faction of sorts that are absolutist, inflexible, unrealistic, destructive, and self-defeating. Let's just hope that last part stays in play.
