On this point, animal-shelter worker Joe was unconvinced: ‘Trump is tapping into the people that are prone to hate, fearmongering and people who are just angry.’ As I move around the pen, ‘I get why they’re angry’ is said time and again. But it’s little more than a throat-clearing exercise. When it comes down to it, the anti-Trump protesters think his supporters are either racist, or plain stupid. ‘People who support Trump are uneducated’, said postgrad student Sally. ‘They don’t have broad minds about what’s going on. I think it’s intelligence.’ For all the talk of ‘making America hate again’, the people who were really being smeared or scapegoated at this rally were Trump supporters – working-class voters who dare to support someone who strays from the PC-politico script. Indeed, the only harsh words thrown at immigrants emanated from the designated free-speech area: as a group of Latin-American men walked past, heading to the rally, a gaggle of college students screamed ‘You’re on the wrong side!’.
There are plenty of reasons to dislike Donald Trump. He’s a crass opportunist, who, for all his talk of sticking it to the freedom-squishing status quo, has more than his fair share of authoritarian tendencies. But this protest in a sleepy New York suburb, and the wretching that Trump has sparked among the cosmopolitan classes nationwide, isn’t really about him. It’s about his supporters: the dumb rednecks who, Sally and Co tell us, know not what they do.
Trump may not go the distance at the Republican convention in July, but this fear and loathing of the masses is here to stay.

The funny thing about the Cruzites here, is that they are uneducated, unethical, and parrot the talking points sheets they get and that’s all they do.
ROTFLMSOPIMP !
You and me both. I’m lit up on the party.
Yeah, the tedstablishment ain’t exactly known for originality nor trustworthiness, much less joyfulness. :)
All they do is whinge, whine, complain,impugn, insult, trash, bash, and grumble. They name call, the throw mud, misrepresent, post Bible verses that don't fit the topic, and pretend to be HOLIER THAN THOU and believe that they actually are the "intelligent" ones among us, but know little to NO factual American history...political or other.
Your rage is funny.
Nope, haven’t seen too many happy Cruz posts.
Even on wisconsin day, the Cruznadians were more menacing than joyful in their posts here.
Stick it...
I’ve NEVER even seen one “HAPPY” post by one of them.
Yep. Add another with 4 degrees, an additional masters certificate, teaching certificate and two military diplomas. Uneducated. Pffffttttt!
Lol! You just proved Gene Eric’s last point. smh
Didn’t mean to cause a ruckus.
You disagree with my point?
Nah. Just some people don’t realize the best part of their being dripped down and hit the sheets.
Holy crepe! This is a ruckus. I didn’t realize you’re a Cruzer, and somehow I (a Trump guy) sided with you against my fellow Trump supporters.
I think it’s almost time for me to call it a night. :)
You are correct. I should call it a night too. Too much friendly fire.
What happened, you ran out of Depends?
It’s a good thing the friendly fire consists of words and not real bullets. See you guys here tomorrow!
Sounds good. I’m sorry. I can always use more trigger discipline.
