In reply to the discussion: "Mr. Trump eats your soul in small bites. It starts with your sitting silent while he lies..." [View all]KY_EnviroGuy
(14,489 posts)4. I've known everyday people like that and most were Rethugs.
They talk non-stop and assume if you don't rudely interrupt them, you agree with their bullshit. And, they'll go tell their friends you agreed. Like tRump, they use lots of abrasive adjectives for everything.
I think this mode of dialog is typical of both cult members and their leaders.
Although raised not to do that, I found the only way to get an objection in is to interrupt and talk over them 'till they shut up.
Of course, no one will do that with tRump........
