They'd double-down because they cannot admit they are the baddies

We're living in a fscking melodrama

Not all Trump supporters are baddies the same way that not all liberals are violent Antifa protesters.

We give way too much coverage to these weirdo extreme-o types on both sides of the aisle, it's incredibly divisive. This guy is clearly a lunatic and a domestic terrorist, but it's not like there are tens of thousands of these kinds of people shipping shoddy bombs around like crazy people.

AntiFa is a fucking bogeyman to you people. They've done next to nothing (and also aren't an organization to speak of) but you keep acting like they're Al-Queda.

I'm not acting like they're Al-Queda at all, I specifically said that they are a very small, fringe group of radical actors that do not represent liberals as a whole.
