Do you feel the political passions are heating up?

What happens when they boil over?

I have little doubt but that there are quite a few low IQ people in the MAGA movement. Many of them own guns.

When they discover that they have been lied to, hoodwinked, and used by the Republican Party. Do they just forget about it and go on their way?

Or do they resort to some sort of violence?

Who do they blame? The liberals or those that lied to them?

You can almost feel the passions building up.

Mussolini thought he was safe, until he wasn't.

Good thing we are more civilized nowadays than those people in the 1930's-40's.

Seems like that happened in Trump's first term, when MAGA felt emboldened by his win. The Trump flags and tiki torches and "anti-pc" rhetoric flying

Term 2 looks like they're in Grief Stage (some number here). Actually becoming so quiet and demoralized that not even Trump, nor Charlie Kirk, nor a Hegseth can put them back together again

The hard core 30% that trump still holds, there's no big enlightenment coming. They're the same as they ever were.

There's no way to know with the violent, lawless right.
