Someone just mentioned the Kopechne family reminding me that this trend goes back 60 years. Why are people so terrified of the Democrats? No one is afraid of Donald Trump or the Republicans! In fact, quite the opposite.
Wow, good one.
That person nailed it!
Because the Democrats have a deserved reputation of being dirty and playing outside the law while Republicans are known to play by the rules. They are either with the Dems, or sympathetic of their goals, or are scared of these people. All the descriptions about this family are likely in play.
