“However, it does make one consider just who would generate so much anger to voters to make them feel thus. Would this be their flaw or a particular flaw in the candidate? At the moment there is no answer to that particular question.”
I’ve been wondering that since the viciousness here against Trump supporters is fairly widespread. There are some personality types that, while appearing calm and rational, project irrational and disruptive feelings onto those around them as a way of getting rid of those unwanted emotions.
It is alarming the vitriol against Trump supporters but this entire election cycle is filled with chaos and disruption stemming from the lack of leadership of good, decent, honest men. In my warped mind the tendency to attempt to understand why and how we got from point A to B always lies just beneath the surface. That we have the won we do in office, we have seen nothing but disruption, dissatisfaction and discouragement. This has become the common factor in each of us. Because of one bad apple an entire countryside is filled with bad apples. Have no idea how much younger you might be.. 68 yo here, but years ago made in the late 60’s was a British movie called Quartermaster And the Pit -being released in America as 5 Million Years to Earth. Plot was: unearthed under the cobblestone streets of London (was found a space ship -presumably from Mars. The Martian inside, dead, looking like a giant grasshopper. The dead Martian had the evil power of causing chaos, violence of all humans around it. At the time it seemed silly, but after this election cycle it makes for a story line which might ring true. Our dark won = the dead Martian with grasshopper antenna.
In essence, after votes have been cast, winner instated, will we once again be able to put our differences aside and become what we once were. There are family members that we’ve not spoken to in 9 years. Will that change- or should it change. Life is full of questions but seldom gives us answers. Some are smart enough to find them. alas, I am still searching.
