11. You can always tell when you've touched a nerve

I participate in other fora where the participants are not shall we say quite as friendly as they are here . When you broach this topic there is always wild screaming and twisting and turning and pretzel logic to try to distance themselves from the reality that they have aligned themselves with a racist leader.

Many of them really don't understand that they have been slowly reverting to the same segregationist mindset that led to the Civil Rights upheaval. It isn't lost on politicians like McConnell though.

Trump is learning more every day about how best to leverage their bigotry to his advantage.
