There's a lot there, so I apologize if I missed any profanity.

Being a defrocked priest in the Republican Party is kind of a fun job in some ways.

huh? Never heard of this dipweed, obviously consumed by TDS.

Possibly you missed the barf alert?

I did not read it word for word, but seems like these people (who are likely quite representative of the liberal middle class?) (1) think they are each the center of the universe (2) are overly dramatic as to perceived threats they felt with the election of DJT (3) probably are overly sensitive to those perceived threats, in no small part, due to the MSM so profusely contributing to the gloom and doom that would occur with a DJT presidency (4) are all so far out of touch with reality as to not even consider WHY Trump WAS able to be elected... (5) probably all fall into supporting (for example) ANTIFA, Planned Parenthood, Globull Warming, etc., etc., but refuse to try to understand “the other side”....

Just my 2 cents. Thanks for posting this article.

80% of the people she interviewed where either Never Trumper’s or Anti Trumper’s.

They all were on the losing side.

Seems very balanced for a progressive writer.

It’s so nice to relive schadenfreude.

"Never heard of this dipweed, obviously consumed by TDS."

SO he's been defrocked. When did he get 'freocked'? I've never heard of him either.

"The incoming administration has some people who are talking about internment camps."

Who would that be? Are these people insane?

I hate these people, but on the other hand, they provide awfully good entertainment!

Trump’s victory changed my life, too.

It gave me hope.

Protests were organized, anti-Trump groups manifested seemingly out of nowhere,

“A person who you would absolutely know in national politics told me, ‘I eat Ambien like it’s candy every day because I have to pretend that this isn’t really happening.’”


Let’s play “Guess the RINO”. Who has been looking sleepy in the GOP lately?

Well, maybe they thought we would need to build camps to temporarily house all of the Hillary and Obama cronies who should have been arrested...

During the summer of 2016, I was an intern for then-Republican Senator Mark Kirk. The reason behind that was I had a lot of friends who expressed interest in voting for Donald Trump to be our president. To me, it just seemed very odd for them to have a Muslim friend and to still want to vote for someone who spreads bigotry and used such harsh, racist language.

So she had friends who could look beyond the surface to be friends with someone who wears a hijab. HORRORS, how could she not take a knife and behead them all for being infidels?

Even during one of the most intensely Islamophobic periods in our nation, I'm still doing this.

She does not say that she has been threatened or harassed in this 'most intensely Islamophobic periods' which I am certain would have been mentioned if it had happened. She is openly running for public office as a Muslim, an absolute sign of being an oppressed 2nd class citizen.

DO THESE PEOPLE have ANY SENSE of history, of how minorities are treated in other countries? How about Christians in her parent's country of Pakistan where people die when accused of insulting the Mohammed.

funny how only one of the five was pro-trump. one was the fake conservative and anti-trumper, rick wilson, and the rest were dyed-in-the-wool “progressives”.

Nice balanced profile of 4 rabid nevertrumpers and one sane guy.
