I question the sanity and judgment now, of anyone who still supports chump

Everyday it is becoming more obvious that chump is unhinged and is exprerienciing a mental breakdown because he is in over his head being president. If you still support this cretin you are also experiencing a dimension of mental illnesses. The cult on the right has become so delusional they no longer can recognize facts and truth. These crazies will be the end of our country if they are not stopped.

weapon, possibly a weapon of mass destruction. Maybe just all the poor with preexisting conditions, possibly the entire planet. They are aiming a nuclear weapon at their political opponents.

2. I've found that it affects how I feel about someone

if I discover they voted for, or like, trump. It actually does affect how I feel about them. In the negative. It's a major league black mark on their ledger, for me. Tells me things about them that they wouldn't be too happy to hear (and surely wouldn't want known). Call it "the Mark of the Deplorable."

3. I worked recently with a teachers aide who told me she thought chump was a great president

I thought she was a negative person before and now I keep my contact with her minimal. The shocking thing to me is she is African American. I am of the opinion that you can't argue or change the mind of special kind of stupid people like her.

6. He's still doing two important things for his supporters.

1. He is not advancing a Democratic party agenda.

2. He makes moderates Republicans and everyone left of them freak out.

His supporters like or discount any negative impact on their lives.

The more effed up he is, the more that he accomplishes 1 and 2.

very liberal) that he does indeed have mental health problems. He believes in all the conspiracy theories. I just ignore his crazy posts on Facebook (as do most of his other friends) and post my own political stuff. I get plenty of likes and shares unlike him. He was never a very good student and went to a "party college." I notice that the people I know who are Republicans went to the same college or another inferior one.

This guys liberal sisters and I went to the same university (University of Michigan) that he rails against and demonizes. He claims that we were all basically "brainwashed." Instead of trying to argue with him, I just ignore it. I don't deem it worthy of my time, to be honest. I think there is a lot of envy and resentment on his part.
