I really, honestly don’t understand their mindset.
I’ve never seen such unrestrained hatred for a candidate - and this from people ostensibly on OUR side. I’ve never seen them react this way to Obama, to Hillary, or to any other Democrat.
I have no idea why they’re acting so utterly deranged - as if Trump, by his mere existence, threatens them.
Me either. It is really, really weird.
The coalition that forms the American left includes a fair number of groups that were solicited politically by appealing to their resentments. Those resentments have been rhetorically promoted and justified, for years, by pundits, politicians, academics, and 'activists' who have gained personally by this. Those types of reckless actions have significant consequences. The brutal ‘cultural revolution’ in China, the growth of the Nazis (and concomitant antisemitism) in Germany and elsewhere in Europe before WWII, and the class and racial hatred that are alive and well in the world we live in are all consequences of this behavior. The left has a lot to answer for.
The same mentally unstable people that were bashing Bush back in the day. Same type of unrestrained hatred and as always coming from the left, no matter what they try to spin this guy as a moderate. It is BS, he is a liberal.

“I’ve never seen such unrestrained hatred for a candidate “
You weren’t around when Reagan was running then. The hatred for him was intense.
“...Trump, by his mere existence, threatens them.”
