Does anyone else think "Trump Voter" when they see weird people acting stupid?

I see a lot of videos on youtube of drunks being arrested acting entitled and people that call themselves "sovereign citizens" arguing with court judges that they don't have jurisdiction over them. They are so bizarre, dumb and anti-social that I can only see them with a Magat hat on. I keep thinking that is the Donald Dump base voter.

...when I have to wait for someone in a 30-foot-long pickup truck to back in to a 20-foot-long parking spot - and it takes two tries.

It's become a thing I suppose. Reasonable people have gotten in the habit of connecting the dumb and uncivilized with Trump supporters. It is now category of its own.

My brother is a police sergeant. The stories he tells ... hoo boy.

The so called "sovereign citizen" movement is spreading like STDs.

He's never experienced more bigotry and racism than since tRump came on the scene. Especially young people, which shocks his officers. My family here are Cuban-American. The gringos call him the "s" word for Hispanics, and he's called the "n" word by Hispanics. The derogation of Biden is almost universal by suspects and perps.

There's many cops on his force who know how crazy tRump and his minions are. He thinks most will vote for Biden.

should realize they are selling out to lawlessness and society's breakdown. If they would just realize they are really hurting themselves in the long run. These weirdos don't respect, law, property rights or civility. Is that what they really want in their government too? And do they think it won't affect them? They must be just as deluded if they think it won't.

Perfect example - I was in Whole Foods the other day and this guy wore a shirt that said "Kill all the pedophiles" (or something similar to that). The cashier commented that the shirt was offensive. He goes apeshit. The clerk called the manager and he got kicked out of the store.

I'm thinking "yeah definitely got to be a Trump voter".

And when I see someone lose their shit in a store or any public place I assume they voted for Trump and will again.

Any time Mrs. Aristus sees some dickbag engaging in some kind of shit-tastic behavior, she rolls her eyes and says: "I'll bet he voted for Trump!"
