COVID landed ashore in early 2020. Trump, throughly unprepared for the pandemic, denied its existence, then attacked the scientists, and politicized the nation’s attempts to mitigate the pandemic— masks, vaccinations, etc. The MAGA crew on this Board hopped aboard. And a dedicated servant, Dr. Fauci, became the scapegoat.

Then we had the George Floyd murder that summer. The same haters asserted that Floyd had it coming, that he died because he didn’t submit. The subsequent Black Lives Matter marches, joined by decent people across the globe, were attacked as “militant criminal gangs” by the same posters. Rather than coming together as a nation, Trump flashed the “law and order” bat signal, flaming the division. “They’re coming for you” became their mantra.

These same posters celebrated teenager Kyle Rittehouse killing two protesters in Wisconsin.

As the 2020 election approached amidst a pandemic, maintaining power at all costs led to attacking mail in voting as fraudulent. Losing the election turned into January 6th, led by Trump’s knowingly false narrative that the election was rigged.

Reasonable Americans, so ashamed of the ugliness that occurred on January 6th, assumed that would be the end of MAGA. But no. We’re sending him back.

So, it comes as no surprise that the same Americans, the same posters, politicize what happened in New Orleans two weeks ago, and what is happening in Los Angeles, with zero compassion or empathy.

They just throw stones, following Trump’s lead, but more fundamentally, because they are shallow people at their core.
