White supremacists, conspiracy theorists out in full force!


... In the hours before the rally, Trump backers in "Q" merchandise were everywhere. QAnon believers think Trump is discretely overthrowing entrenched government forces, Democrats, and Hollywood elites, and that there's an anonymous high-level government agent who goes by "Q" constantly updating followers on his progress ...

Groups of white supremacists calling themselves "Proud Boys" also donned matching polos and marched toward anti-Trump protesters outside the rally, flashing "okay" hand gestures that reportedly represent a "W" and a "P" to make "white power." Orlando police stopped them from getting too close to the protesters ...

Rather than millions looked like maybe a hundred or so.

And Brownshirts? The Brownshirts were German men who had become immune to death or suffering by years in the trenches of the bloody WWI trench warfare battlefield. They wee tough and battle hardened. They brought that violence to the streets of Germany. And had no respect for any authority.

The Trump Storm Troopers are middle aged men who could not run 100 yards without taking a break. And allow bicycle cops to turn them back.

They are posers.

The whole "Q" thing is so incredibly absurd, yet they refuse to listen to the truth about how much of a shithead dear leader is.

These are the people who'll create problems when Trump loses in 2020. I hope law enforcement keeps a very close eye on these reprobates before, during, and especially after Trump's shellacking in 2020.
