There's a difference between somebody who voted for Trump and somebody who is a MAGA true believer.

Explain the difference and why it matters.

Video of the mob that stormed the capital during the Kavanaugh hearings.  You guys are such f**king hypocrites is ridiculous.  Delete your accounts hypocrites.  You’re a disgrace.

How so?

What's not to get? He talks like a populist (albeit one who directs his and his followers' ire at minorities and others) and governed like a regular Republican.

Because that is how we got here. Laziness. It is much easier to label everyone you don’t agree with than actually listen. Why do you think our society has become so polarized? 

I’m hoping this will be a positive thing, like people will step back and say we just can’t do this anymore. We have to change how we treat each other. Everyone who doesn’t agree with me isn’t a moron.
Perhsps you're more naturally progressive than you're willing to admit to yourself because just everyone who's disagreed with Republicans have been labeled a communist.

Another popular one seems to be the same utter stupid horseshit Shady is spouting.

“What about the BLM riots”?

The thing is, most people would feel differently about these capital hill riots if Trump had won the election, the Democrats accused him of stealing the election, and ANTIFA types stormed the Capital building.

The problem here is that Trump is lying, but these rioters honestly believe him and are doing what in their mind is their patriotic duty.  How do you fix stupid?  It's impossible.  So the solution is:  if you're a powerful leader, don't make such terrible lies, because people lacking in intelligence will follow you.

Bullshit.   If you storm the legislature buildings to riot and overturn the government, you should be shot, or at the very least arrested.   BLM, ANTIFA, whomever.   If this was BLM who did this, there’s be dead people littering the offices.

Apparently, 26 arrests were made at the Capitol building yesterday....  26.

When disabled people protested there, peacefully, 180 of them were arrested.

Mask off.

Quote
hirty minutes to curfew, riot police moved to push the crowd back. There were altercations—protesters shoved and hit police, their faces all sweaty rage—but most, it seemed, didn’t want to be gassed again. As they fell back, people took parting shots: “Pigs!” “Is this what we get for backing the Blue?!” “You just lost the only people in this country who stand behind you!” “You serve Satan!”

It was growing dark. Park lights along the Mall had switched on, illuminating the monuments. On the ground, in the hands of so many retreating protesters, American flags beat in the wind. Atop the Capitol building, now aglow under low-hanging clouds, the same flag flew.

“This is not America,” a woman said to a small group, her voice shaking. She was crying, hysterical. “They’re shooting at us. They’re supposed to shoot BLM, but they’re shooting the patriots.”

Keep believing these things, if enough people do there will be another Trump 4 years from now.

The lesson Trump's rise has given us is that if an autocrat ego-maniac is the only type of politician to attempt to address the issues that people want addressed, then people will elect autocrat ego-maniac.

The lesson is to appease the nutbars and do what they want?

Sounds like a recipe for a lovely, happy country where black folks can hold hands with the KKK...

You can't see the difference between someone yelling and a group of terrorists storming the capitol building and breaking windows/barging into offices? My gawd the straws you grasp at become increasingly ridiculous. Maybe when trumpty dumpty is in jail you can go visit him.
