University of Maryland sociologist Arie Kruglanski says that many liberals are demonizing Trump supporters at the moment because of a need for this kind of closure. Sounds a lot like what's happening right here on AM, doesn't it?

How scared is he really? What other absurd lies will he tell to try to get this monkey of his own making off his back? We are watching. We know what is going here. That he thinks we don't is seriously the best example of how he thinks he is smarter than anyone thereby underestimating everyone and proving he isn't. :(

You’re a state-of-the-art carrier-based fighter with an impressive compliment of weapons, which means you can operate from anywhere. You’re fast, but your limited fuel capacity and high consumption rate force you to always have an airborne tanker nearby. Overall you’re an extrovert who is at once independent and needy. You can be impulsive, but you keep yourself out of trouble by staying agile and limiting the size of your inner circle.Did come close to the spitfire, eh? less

Further, educated people regardless of their ethnic backgrounds know about such things as well. I don't get it. How can you be ignorant about your own past history/ancestors and what they went through?

Will you be burdened with such a heavy weight at your end of days? Why?

It is the man he cannot stand because The Donald is in his shadow and always will be and he knows it and cannot take being "less than". He is so much less than Obama it isn't even funny. So much so that even his egotistical narcissistic self realizes it. SIGH. Here we go again. When will The Donald's pathetic needy self move on?

Besides weekly trips to Mar a lago security for his family in New York, him in D.C. and at Mar a Lago, what is the tab for that? Then what about all his golf trips worldwide to visit his golf courses worldwide under the auspices of visiting foreign dignitaries for "government business"? By the end of his rain (SIC) will it be in the billions? Since he IS a billionaire it stands to reason that everything has gotta be first- class and first-class is always more expensive. We are supporting him in the style to which he has always been accustomed. He says he won't take a salary. Just $1 a year. Sure. But he will be bleeding us dry in every other way. Anyway he can. Remember he is a business man first, last and always. He wants to get the best end of the deal. Guess who is always going to get the worst end? Right! We the people. And so it will be until his last day. Are we there yet? less

No matter how you justify them they indicate what you like and don't like as much. What you accept and what you reject. Big deal, right?

The hope of course is that the Russia/Trump et al SCANDALS will be forgotten as the hapless perps scamper about trying to start a lot of fires and the other hapless vics try to put out all the fires Donald starts. When will one of those fires turn into a conflagration that takes him out?
