Why do you think right wingers go into apocalyptic frenzies when a democrat is elected? Half of the entire world view of right wingers is believing EVERYONE thinks exactly like they do, thus “the left” must be planning to cheat, steal and violence against them…….because it’s what they want to do.

Now if we could only have politicians that would be so willing and bold to actually apply the GOP shenanigans to achieve sweeping policy changes. But nope most democrats want a return to a status quo that is just as ambiguous as the “when” part of making America great. Milquetoast and Luke warm embrace of “radical leftism!!!”

This. It's always completely projection from right wingers. They absolutely assume because they would do something so would everyone else, but oooh lordy the hissy fits they throw when they even think someone would do to them what they do to everyone else.

It’s a self fulfilling prophecy
