There are folks who get exactly what I mean.

There no jubilation on Tuesday morning.

Thread after thread of very angry people, and it wasn’t Trump’s people I entered threads with perhaps two or three Trump supporters in the first 15 posts, and the tone was shockingly bad for folks whose guy just won.

It hasn’t gotten any better either.

Your guy is busy calling for a do-over and threatening to sue. His actions are poison.

Open your eyes.

I must be on a different FR than you. But it’s not just here.

Senator Chris McDaniel

From day one of this presidential season, I’ve had 4 candidates I’ve openly discussed in a positive light (each for different reasons): Cruz, Carson, Paul and Trump.

Although I do not believe Trump to be a Constitutional Conservative, I’ve always admired his courage and LOVED it when he challenged the establishment. I understand his supporters and their outrage.

But a small number of Trump’s people have become delusional, detached from reason and sanity.
...

The Carson supporters are always polite, much like their candidate. The Paul supporters are always kind, firm and principled.

But in the past four days, a contingent of Trump supporters have called me a communist, a liberal, an establishment insider and a RINO.

Do they not know history? Do they not care to know history? Is such ignorance common in our system? Or is it just a knee-jerk reaction? Does his record matter? Does mine? How does this happen?

I’ve been in political office for 9 years. Before that, I was a conservative commentator and activist. I’ve spent 2 decades fighting for conservative causes. I’ve never backed away from a fight, and I’ve never abandoned my principles. At no time in my life have I been called a communist, liberal, establishment insider or RINO.

Such reckless and blind loyalty to a personality concerns me greatly.

To my sane Trump friends, can you kindly explain?
