We May Have To Commit Trump Voters To An Insane Asylum

[TheMastersNemesis]

Based on the videos surfacing of Trump rallies a Trump supporters are certifiably insane. They are so out of touch with reality and it is not even funny. It is absolutely terrifying. We have nearly three more months of this dangerous derangement that grows angrier by the day. Expect Trump to double down and double down again on hate as we go forward. Remember also the GOP really does support him they are just CYA.

They will get even more angry if it becomes absolutely certain that the "Donald" will lose. Despite the polls it is still early in the election cycle. Trump is a political arsonist who would burn the country down to win. And we can look forward to angry chaotic finish to this election.

This post may sound like hyperbole but every day something new comes up. And all his rallies are a white hot hate fest. He stokes racial hatred and bigotry with every stump speech. He says nothing about ANY solution except hate ANYONE who will not support him. He is demonizing any opposition to HIS version of America.

So putting a Hillary sticker on your car or in sign in your window might must make you a target.

ADDENDUM My post is sort of "tongue in cheek". Not completely serious. Then again I wonder. What is bothersome that no facts, no actions, no speech are too far over the top with supporters. There is a total and complete denial of reality.

1. Your last sentence is along the lines of something I have been thinking about.

Trump has some certifiably insane people supporting him. Most of them are gun nuts. I could easily envision a scenario where one,. or more, of them attempts to kill Hillary at an event, or as she enters/leaves and event. Those fuckheads would likely be killed by the secret service or police, but they would live on as martyrs in the minds of the other Trump crazies.

2. I had someone try to force my car off the road, I suspect due to my Kerry bumper sticker

Back then I was living in a pretty red part of the county. I had noticed his car was behind me, for a while. Then he suddenly moved to the inside lane and pulled up next to me, flipped me off and started moving into my lane. I had a 'Veterans for Kerry' sticker and the man in the other car, probably in his early 60's, was livid. The look on his face was truly frightening. It occurred to me, later, that he might be one of the 'swiftboaters'.

As soon as he swerved back into his lane and it was safe I sped up and quickly turned onto another road so I was able to get away from him, but I never saw his license plate. That wasn't the only time someone tried to intimidate me, on the road, but it was definitely the most frightening. Other times the intimidation was the flip off accompanied by some pretty vile language. Thankfully the horn honks and accompanying thumbs up were much more plentiful.

3. Happened to me too with Kerry sticker

Not in a "red" area either but 30 miles from NYC on LI. Two young men (late teens or early 20's) in a red pickup truck with a Confederate Flag flying tried to run me into oncoming traffic. Screamed FU me at and gave me the bird. Picking on a woman almost then old enough to be your Grandma?

Hey, guys, go back to school. New York was NEVER part of the Confederacy. They are everywhere. No place is safe from them.

Trump voters insane asylum? Let their leader be the first one.

4. We need increased mental health funding

To fund clinics for Cheetos insane supporters. They will be flipping out when Hillary demolishes Cheeto and they will be in denial and suicidal.

5. It's worse than a mere "confirmation bias".

You can see it expressed on the faces of the people standing behind at his rallies. They often display this smug smile that means that "facts" are the product of a "conspiracy" they don't buy. You don't see that type of smile in other rallies. As far as I'm concerned, this is the face of empowered stupidity and I often think their faces should be collected and aligned somewhere on a wall of shame for future reference.
I would also add that such smugness grew in part from the systematic process of derealization inspired by post-modern deconstruction, a recuperation of the old, and very real, marxist infrastructure/superstructure dynamic. Now that reality has been effectively denied, images and actors reign, the true is a moment of the false and the spectacle is supported by throngs of people with enough intelligence and knowledge to be happy extras but not enough to understand or even read the script.
