I don't understand why everybody thinks Trump supporters will go apeshit if he doesn't win. E.g., when Obama won there weren't marches, riots, protests, etc. Unlike the ludicrous narrative the media has created about Republicans, which is textbook strawman fallacy, that's not how 99% of Republicans roll.
- yeah media counts a lot these days, Trump leads by 20 points or so in media coverage, even tho' all the articles are against him in mainstream media.grafician
- There's a scene in 'The Social Dilemma' Doc on nextflix that goes some way to explain how and why, in the last decade, political opinion and party allegiance...Morning_star
- ...has become more and more polarised and extreme, and the centre ground has shrunk. I think the nightly riots in Portland are a measure of what can be...Morning_star
- ...expected if the result is considered 'questionable'. It won't take much to pit Reps and Dems against each other.Morning_star
- The republicans I remember growing up were nothing like the republicans here today. Although, I don't think 99% of them will go nuts, It's the remainder...ayport
- Uh, maybe people think this because there are actual videos of his supporters saying they'll start a civil war, and won't believe the results if he loses?mathinc
- the same idiots that couldn't find the way home after left in the dark and cold after his rallies lol? don't count on those to start anythinggrafician
- after Trump is no longer president, he will slip out of media attention in a blip, all his "supporters" will vanish in thin airgrafician
- he will also take down the GOP with him, pretty sure America will not see another Rep president in 20 years...grafician
- Well, Bush, nor McCain nor Romney dogwhistled their supporters to arms. You're conflating "Trump Supporters" with "Republicans" a bit too closely.ben_
- The people that are worrisome are the idiotic, gun waving kooks that unfortunately a lot of Republicans have co-signed because they don't want to cede power.ben_
- dude the GOP of 2020 is no longer a Republican GOP, all those people are nuts...grafician
- No, they're not, but ratios aside, anyone who claims "Republican" with a vote for Trump is accountable for what happens next.ben_
- America won’t last 20 years.PhanLo
- I agree, there won't be riots. A bunch of dudes might show up at a library with AR-15s just to let us know how small their dicks are, but that's about it.nb
- You're probably right, nb.MondoMorphic
