I for one, speaking as someone that lurks for long stretches but still pays attention, would take your efforts at supposition and sifting for evidence of a hidden Democratic agenda a bit more seriously if you have not been dismissing concerns about Republican actions as hysteria even when they are very explicit.
Its about abortion.
If you believe abortion is murder than this is likely your top issue and also likely FAR more important than any issue. So you are going to support the candidate warts and all that that will pass laws and appoint judges who will limit abortion rather than a candidate that supports baby killing.
Because the left doesn't view the unborn as life I think a lot of the left have trouble grasping just how important this topic is over everything else to much of the right. I'm sure the majority of right wingers would rather have a pro lifer like Pence as president since he isn't going to be acting like a petulant child all the time but they'll continue supporting Trump so long as he flies the anti abortion flag.

This could have a lot to do with it too. Just sayin'.
It's really just about the babies and not at all about control and terrorizing women.

In scenes reminiscent of the ‘morality police’ found in groups like the Taliban, a man in Tucson, Arizona has taken it upon himself to ‘reeducate’ women who visit the local Planned Parenthood office. The vigilante pro-lifer, identified as Jordan Hart, has openly admitted to taking license plate photos of people entering the facility, so he can track them down to their homes to bring ‘awareness and truth’ about abortion.

I'm just gonna throw this out there, the breakdown of the US government would be really bad. Like, cataclysmicly bad. Tens of millions dead in the US, probably ten times that worldwide. It would be so huge that I have a hard time even imagining the fallout.
We should do our very best to keep a situation where violently dismantling the government is necessary from ever happening in the first place.
So evidently Facebook doxed the guy who created the fake Nancy Pelosi video and I'm not sure how I feel about that.

Hillary was right!
That's probably never going to happen, people these days have way too much to lose these days to even think about attempting a violent revolution. Even those AR-toting edgelords wouldn't dream of giving up their comfortable middle class existence to fight against some imagined threat of tyranny, if anyone still remembers when the Bundy militia took over that building in Oregon they started sending out requests for care packages right away, and as if the situation wasn't ludicrous enough, the postal service was actually delivering them.
What's much more likely is that the erratic governance of the current administration will slowly erode American credibility overseas, sapping our power and influence and thus diminishing our ability to continue extracting the resources that we depend on to sustain our lifestyle. But the degradation will be slow enough that we won't really notice it until it's too late to do anything about it, and by that point a violent revolution won't change anything anyway.

Did Gun ‘Silencer’ Make A Difference In Virginia Beach Carnage?
It could at least partially explain why survivors of the shooting said they were caught off guard and initially puzzled by what was happening. And that figures to give gun crazed nutbags bad ideas for future bloodbaths. Disturbing.

‘It Feels Like We Are Prisoners’: Migrant Children Describe Trauma At Florida Detention Center
Lawyers say the facility violates child welfare standards, and that no minor should be held at Homestead for more than 20 days. And that could well give birth to the next generation of rapists and killers Trump warned his easily frightened base about.

Extreme Abortion Bans Inspire Progressive Women To Run For Office
Women are as fired up as ever in the wake of several states passing sweeping anti-abortion laws. An unintended consequence I'm all in favor for.

Navy Acknowledges It Was Asked To ‘Minimize’ Visibility Of John McCain Warship
The request was made in preparation for President Donald Trump’s visit to Japan. In a word----pathetic! Makes me ashamed of the Navy which I gave twenty years of my life to the service.
