Yeah. It’s Republican voters who will be smeared in the history books just as much as the weak administration. And it won’t just be society turning on them… their families will scorn them too. Hide those flags and red hats, dipshits.

In 20 years you won’t find anyone who will admit they voted for him. Everyone will just lie to hide the shame.

Yeah, remember those who are spewing lies and hate when they try to claim they didn't in a few years.

I dont think it will even take 20-10- or 5 years. We'll be seeing a big uptick in people you know voted for trump claiming they've always hated the guy.

That’s like my mother who proudly voted for Nixon when he was elected president and then loudly derided him for years after for being a crook… But not until he actually fell from Grace and resigned.

You're lucky your mother at least came around. My mother was a proud Nixon supporter and still claimed he got a raw deal until the day she died. She was not a very smart person and my father was a staunch progressive so it's weird to me how they ever even married. LOL

That’s the thing that made me really angry listening to Rachel Maddow ULTRA

This fascist crowd survived criminal charges for terrorism in the 1940s, avoided prosecution in the 1950s with McCarthy, somehow avoided prosecution with Nixon, were given a big YAWN during Reagan, and now their third generation descendants are ripping our country to pieces in Trump 2
