    What I am saying is they are getting what they want, it’s just far smaller than most people will expect.

    Religious people don’t need an actual religious man up there, they want abortion banned, and he’ll do it, so they vote him. The police want to be unaccountable, with larger and larger budgets, so they vote the guy who will do it. The Police at large won’t suffer with a criminal in charge, it won’t change their day to day at all other than they’ll find it easier to do illegal things that Trump wants.

    Organized religion has always been hypocritical, the Jesus-following ones often from the forefront. Jesus would be stoned to death by the current mob of Christians in the US as a Communist/Socialist/etc. Police are often the driving force of Fascist takeovers of nations. The idea they’d allow a criminal in charge seems pretty in-line with the fact huge portions of police are already criminals, they just are either immune/won’t be targeted for prosecution or hide their crimes with their fellow cops.

    The Right has virtually always existed with projection, from ‘law and order’ to ‘religious humility’ to ‘non-violent protests.’
