I think it’s quite amusing that the folks who really are deranged about il Douche have chosen to label the folks who are merely astounded and horrified with that label.
Maybe Payne will get it when Russian paratroopers are landing on Capitol Mall and their frogmen are swimming up the Potomac. Or when the Republicans get rid of the free press and he stops getting paid to support the party line.
More like a severe outbreak of TDS, Deranged Trump Supporters..
I have found it is useless to try and argue or reason with Followers of the Cult of Trump. And let’s be honest, that’s what this has become. The Republican Party, such as it was, ceased to exist in 2016, and most that knew better left the party. There are a few that still remain in the CoT, who aren’t glad swillers of the warm, yellow, unsweetened Kool-Aid Trump puts out, but those that aren’t under the thrall of their Dear Leader use him to prey upon those that do for their own personal gain and positioning for after he’s gone.
Trying to criticize their Dear Leader, or even have an objective discussion, with a Cult Follower gets the results you’ve already seen. Anger, the pushing of carefully (or sloppily) produced documents from fringe websites, Fox Infotainment, or other spurious sources. All you can do is nod, say OK, and move on, hoping that you can deprogam them after the CoT era, but there will be those that will always be willing Followers, so it’s only a hope. Some are just prone to become followers of this cult or that, and Trump, a bad businessman and mediocre reality TV actor, has a certain personality that attracts segment of followers and fans, despite being shown that the “Legend of Trump” is a fiction.
I could go on, but most of you already know all this.

Any of those senators who are caught not paying attention should lose their votes.

Does “Lock her up!” have any meaning to Mr. Payne?

You can call it a syndrome if you want, Payne. John Bolton called what the democrats object to a “drug deal”.

Geez Hank. Trump may be a lying, tax cheating, misogynistic, charity money thief but I wouldn’t call him deranged.
