10. I think it's simple, really

It's much easier to "burn something down" than it is to build or repair.

All you needed to do to win the hearts of ReTrumplicans was tell them you were going to take a flamethrower to whatever "strawman" was constructed and advertised as what was the problem.

It's much harder to govern, and much harder to explain governing in a 10 second sound-bite.

Is the "gubmint" responding to Hurricane Harvey and Irma the "evil, corrupt, disgusting entity keeping the white man down"?

Democrat want efficient and effective governance, and that involves tackling, understanding and explaining complex issues and intricacies. ReTrumplicans tell you that the solution is to blow everything up.

What makes for a better sound-bite?

Oh, and fuck this guy who wrote the article! "I was too fucking blind to see ignorant racists pieces of shit all around me, please appeal to my needs"?

Fuck That!
