(7,134 posts)Is how they continue to make excuses for Trumps depraved behavior.
Take my Trump-loving sister-in-law. Despite being a good person with a good heart, her blind spot when it comes to Trump drives me mad. The other day, for example, I posted a link on my FB page to an article about Trump hosting terrorist-enabler Wayne LaPierre at the White House on the 5th anniversary of Sandy Hook. She replied that I wasnt being fair, that it was a holiday party to which a lot of different people were invited. My response to her was that the families of the dead children were probably not feeling so festive.
This exchange came a day or two after we had the FB equivalent of a shouting match over Roy Moore. I had complained about Trump campaigning for the pervert, and her response was What about Al Franken? It incensed me that anyone in her right mind would equate Al Franken to a loathsome child molester. But thats what the Cult of the Con Man has come to - defending the indefensible, dragging public servants like Mueller and Franken into the mud to justify their own devil worship.
Its a sickness. Its the only way I can explain it.
