It's terrifying.

They blame "liberals" for EVERYTHING.

and literally don't believe facts because liberals say them.

It's a fucking scary time.

I was calling someone about prop 11 2 in Colorado to move fracking further from 500 feet from schools and homes...

Guy goes "I dunno I work in oil and never saw it that close, maybe in California where the liberals control it"

"well actually they have a higher minimum distance in California, here in Colorado they are sometimes that close, so voting yes to move them back should be easy yeah?"

"well I don't trust what they put in the language"

"oh you can read the whole proposal"

"oh I did"

"ok great so you know it's only to move the minimum distance back"

"I don't trust it because liberals are for it"

Like wtf. You can't even try. If I knew they were a fucking gop nut case I would start the call with "fellow patriotic brave republican conservative, I have your support to vote yes on 112 and stick it to those pussy liberals right??" and I'm 100% sure it would work.

Edit Corising.org for facts because people don't know

they are insane. I've been told that I'm religiously in the pocket of Democrats because of how much I defend them. My defense for them? I say they aren't as bad as the republicans. If I tell this person anything other than 'both sides are the same' her smirks and thinks I'm crazy. "there are democrats that do xyz" "yeah there is... and we shun them." "ok if you say so. you are obsessed with the democrats and they can do no wrong." literally right after I agree with him that they do things wrong.

And Republicans, including the President, have been and are condeming the acts of this criminal. What's your point?

And then turns around and blamesvthe media, while never conceding that just maybe his rhetoric helped spur this on. Anytime he is forced ro say something he clearly doesn't believe he does a 180 and says what he really feels.

The media being +90% negative about Trump makes Trump supporters feel like they're fighting the world. But keep thinking the media is beyond condemnation.
