With thanks to my buddy Dave, who lists the Repub targets.

These rabid reactionaries hate – with a white-hot fury – the multifarious “Others” whom they’ve been taught to hate for decades now by Reagan, Gingrich, Falwell, Limbaugh, O’Reilly, et al.  They hate Democrats, liberals, socialists, “communists” (their all-purpose epithet now for anyone who doesn’t guzzle Trump’s Kool-Aid), non-Christians, non-whites, immigrants, uppity women, gays and other “gender subversives”, intellectuals, artists and other “free-thinkers” – the usual list of suspects that together comprise the majority of Americans – E Pluribus Unum.  

They don’t want to just roll back the respective Gay, Women’s and Civil Rights movements, the Great Society and the New Deal – they want to roll back the Civil War and return America to a feudal state run by rich, white, patriarchal, vengeful, Old Testament theocratic slaveowners.

 

That’s why they unconditionally worship Trump.  He made their long-repressed bigotry and hatred for all the “Others” who despoil their dystopian fantasy of a “pure” America suddenly seem like a viable path to attain their ultimate vision of a rabidly ethno-nationalist, theocratic, authoritarian regime.  

 

And now, viable it is
