(8,847 posts)not about like or love...it's about mutual hate...Trump hates who they hate...he gave voice to that hate..he normalized and legitimized it with the help of an it's-all-about-access press...Trump gave them permission to threaten, maim, and kill "the other" with little to no punishable accountability or consequence ..what's another dead Black protestor, elderly Jew, Hispanic, Asian American, Muslim...they don't care if Trump loves/likes/hates them...this is about racial/ethnic/gender hate and the guy who gave them open season to "express" their hate, so it's no surprise they were "game" to overthrow a legitimate election, kill cops, hang Pence, hunt down Pelosi, vandalize a sacred building, all at Trump's behest...they need their guy in the White House
