That and cons will always find a way to spin something to cause outrage and anger towards anyone but themselves.

Just went through that with an elderly neighbor recently.

She broke her foot and is in poor health, so we were walking her dog twice a day cause we are nice like that. She was always praising us for being such good people and a godsend to her.

One day, she made a comment that she thought Trump was doing a great job and I gently tried to explain to her that he was ruining our lives and countless others out there.

I was hoping she would have a moment of introspection, but no. She just immediately went on about the democrats, how we get offended too easily, and how she thinks I swear too much but she doesn't hold it against me.

Everything except: "I'm sorry. I didn't realize."

Told her we no longer feel comfortable walking get dog.

Cue the waterworks and the "What about me? I can't walk!"

It's not worth engaging with these people. There is something broken in their brains.

They are brainwashed. The people we hate are actually some of trumps biggest victims. They are the victims of brainwashing. And they will soon be victimized in other ways as well. And when they question it, Trump will blame them, othe people, anyone but himself. And like victims of narcissistic abuse, they will do the mental backflips required to forgive Trump.
