#2 "The one and only way to protect yourself is to make sure they lose the election," he concluded.

I hear guns work pretty well. Also - nunchuks!

#3 You do not want a civil war where it is neighbor against neighbor or a city against neighborhoods. Vicious and bloody does not begin to describe it. So get off that horse a vote for Republicans Damn it.

#5 "Are you or have you ever been a Card-Carrying member of the Republican Party?" And they call us McCarthyist...!?!

#6 I knew someone (ex-Friend and ex-acquaintance) who asserted as a matter of fact that "All members of the Tea Party are Raaacists!" And we know that once you are a racist/fascist/unperson then violence isn't that far away.

#8 Should mention that all people in favour a affirmative action are racists.

#9 One thing that feeds the left is that Hillary won the popular vote. That allows them to believe they represent everyone. It would be nice in the next election if Trump won the popular vote by a good margin so the extremists know they are in the extreme.

Just because Trump supporters are quiet doesn't mean they don't exist.

#10 It would be nice in the next election if Trump won the popular vote by a good margin

If that happens, they'll just say that the elections were rigged - should pay more attention to the way pseudohomo sinistrus mind works, ruprecht.

#11 I have a friend who was a Republican but then the Gulf War turnd him against W, and he believed crazy media nonsense about the tea party. I tried patiently to explain to him what the tea party was about, he pretended to listen but it didn't sink in. I told him my parents (who practically raised him) went to tea party events and it didn't sink in. Finally he called them tea baggers and I got loud and said don't insinuate my mother is a tea bagger and he got all offended. It took little arguments over the years but finally it sunk in.

At the same time he would dismiss pretty much any news source that wasn't main stream news. I'd point out that internet news had the news a few days earlier, often weeks earlier, but it usually eventually came out in the MSN even if it was buried. Again the needle didn't budge.

Naturally he is a #NeverTrump now. That seems to be a stage of denial along the Conservative to Liberal slide.

It was/is very strange to watch brainwashing, the death of intellectual curiosity, and lefty conversion in slow motion. Kind of sad really.

#12 rjschwartz - is the person's name Charles Johnson?

#13 Raj, haven't gone there in years, is he still off in Conspiracy-R-US land?
I watched when the Charles Johnson (AKA Little Green Footballs) feud with Gates of Vienna erupted. Charles Johnson "discovered" that some of the people mobilizing against the Islamists in Europe were members of "Blood and Soil" Populist groups. As I recall, Charles Johnson blew a gasket at that point (guess he has a fascist/neo-nazi phobia) and demanded that everybody assume his version of ideological purity. IMNSO, LGF then wandered further and further off into la-la leftist conspiracy land...

#14 I think CJ was always nuts, and just slid further down into the cesspool he now inhabits. Many years ago, he had hard drives die and was panicking, asking for help. I offered to send him one, and was sneered at because the drive offered wasn't Mac/Apple compatible. The details have been shrouded by time, but I remember the elitist sneer.

#15 Nope, wasn't Charles Johnson. I used to enjoy Little Green Footballs though, until he went crazy and banned anyone that didn't agree with him.

#17 Raj, haven't gone there in years, is he still off in Conspiracy-R-US land?

That's a big 10-4:

Donald Trump Calls Out His Cultish Followers to Attack Rep. Maxine Waters

... and banned anyone that didn't agree with him.

I got banned after posting something in a comment section of either Tim Blair's or Patterico's sites. Now ask yourself - what kind of a psycho goes reading other people's comments section just so he can ban someone?

#18 He speculated that the danger could actually motivate Republicans to vote

The salient question being: what will the GOP do with a renewed majority?

The same thing they're doing now?

#19 I left LGF after getting into a discussion with someone who had a very disturbing obsession with scat. That's when I called it quits. Yikes!
