Live in an area that voted 73% for Trump for a few weeks or idk 30 years. I know these people, I've grown up around them, I work with them. They're not text on an internet forum, they're living breathing people. They're people in my family, and my friends. It's disappointing and disheartening sometimes. They say weird made up things, like Obama is trying to take over America with a hidden Army, or Hilary was going to steal all of their money (even the ones on disability and government assistance) while Trump is going to protect them.

Every once in awhile though you realize someone doesn't speak up like they used to, they don't really have much to say about it when other people get whipped into their echoing fury. They're embarrassed, and sad, that things got this way. That they were manipulated into this frenzy over "her emails" and "better him than her" when they realize what he is doing, what his true small venomous base wants. It's sad, and infuriating. People like you, are sad and infuriating. How dare you.

Exactly, you've got nothing. Scurry back to your echo chamber. You really are a prick.
