I simply cannot fathom the level of hate that these assholes have towards other people. It's truly unbelieveable.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

68. They do. But you have to see if from their (wrong, sometimes racist) perspective to understand.

We agree: Convicted felons have no place in the Oval Office.

But maga are Right Wing Authoritarian Followers. Their sense of justice first and foremost simplified, because 1) Simple solutions appeal to them more even if they are wrong because they don't have the patience (and too often not enough intelligence). 2) They are RWAF for the reasons in point 1 and the result is that they feel just should be tilted towards themselves, that the leader is not often wrong, and Judges are stupid because they follow complex reasoning and not simple "common sense". Racism also warps their search towards simpler solutions when combined with their lack of empathy.

And yes, on families, it is always their families, not the families of the wider community because they don't have the empathy or the broader more enlightened understanding that enables progressives and Democrats to care about wider communities.
