My introduction to "conservative" grievance propaganda was seeing an article titled "Christian arrested for praying" and finding out he was arrested because he was in the middle of a busy intersection screaming about the Bible, blocking traffic.
"The Republican base actively embraces Trump’s grievances; it emulates his pettiness; it supports his childlike inability to accept responsibility. These voters are not sighing in resignation and voting for the lesser of two or three or four evils. They are getting what they want—because they, too, are set on revenge."
"These voters are not settling a political score. Rather, they want to get even with other Americans, their own neighbors, for a simmering (and likely unexpected) humiliation that many of them seem to have felt ever since swearing loyalty to Trump.
A lot of people, especially in the media, have a hard time accepting this simple truth."
"Millions of Americans, stung by the electoral rebukes of their fellow citizens, have become so resentful and detached from reality that they have plunged into a moral void, a vortex that disintegrates questions of politics or policies and replaces them with heroic fantasies of redeeming a supposedly fallen nation."
The electoral rebuke that stung them bitterly was Obama's election.
The #House is expected to vote Tues afternoon on whether to make Rep #JimJordan its next speaker. Jordan, a #RightWing conservative agitator, who spews #ConspiracyTheories & #propaganda, is allied w/ Trump. He was chosen by fellow #HouseRepublicans on Fri to lead the House but must win a majority in the full chamber to take the gavel.
No family in American history is as #whiny and #pathetic as the #Trumps They see #grievance at every turn, and complain about every perceived slight no matter how small and #petty. I hope all the worst things in life happen to them. If they're going to bitch and moan about everything, we might as well get our money's worth.
Awww... Poor #RFKjr. He's such a persecuted #victim. How dare the #media report on the things he says! And people like him always try to hide behind the #FirstAmendment, as if the First Amendment was some sort of validation of his #deplorable remarks. You're not a victim, Bobby. You're just an #entitled D-bag who wants to dodge #accountability for your destructive #lies.
