The real True Believers, and I know a couple, don’t care. They’re perfectly aware of the ridiculous nature of the charade but if it serves to act against a guy they’ve worked themselves up to believing is the ultimate enemy, they’ll go with it. That doesn’t argue well for reasoning them around, in fact, I’ve tried and I don’t think it’s possible. The intensity of the hatred they’ve cultivated is past obsession and approaching monomania. Certain of the media share the obsession, others merely stoke it for their own purposes. The one thing it isn’t is healthy.
Too true....
