21. Oh dear, I've recently had a thought ..

Sat Feb 11, 2017, 03:32 PM

Feb 2017

that many of the people crowding the town halls
and getting angry actually voted Reep..

and they would rather get upset and yell at a
Reep, as bad as they are, than a Dem or a
non-white person.

I bet they'd still vote Reep even after all this.

It would work something like this. Yes, he/she
is doing horrible things that could harm us, a
real sociopathic louse ... but he/she is MY
sociopathic louse, you know, one of us.
