And they seem dead set on proving that every chance they get.
Hate and their insatiable hunger for power is all they have to sustain themselves.
Quite Satanesque.
My theory is that they simply went off the rails by believing their own campaign propaganda. 2016 was one of the nastiest campaigns ever. Not only was Trump called every name in the book - racist, xenophobe, sexist etc etc - it’s the only campaign I can recall where in one candidate actually went out of her way to insult the voters directly calling them a “basket of deplorables” (which, afaik, deplorable is an adjective not a noun) and “irredeemable”.
Who thought that insulting the voters was a winning strategy?
They did. And then they were shocked that they lost. But the thing is, they painted themselves into a logical corner. You can’t come back from calling someone a racist; it is probably the only unforgivable thing in America today. You can’t redeem someone who is irredeemable. So there is no reconciliation available, no path for them to come together. So they are lost in the upside down.
