You're the one that believe the lie that Obama was qualified due to his skin color.

There was one thing in the article that struck me as spot-on:
"Baptist minister and former Republican congressman J.C. Watts put it succinctly. Campaigning for Sen. Rand Paul in Iowa in 2015 he observed, “The difference between Republicans and Democrats is that Republicans believe people are fundamentally bad, while Democrats see people as fundamentally good.” "
I totally agree with that.
Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, and hate leads to suffering - Yoda. I sense much fear in conservatives.
Trump is an evangelist, not a religious one but he sells his phony image as salvation. Like Trump University. If you follow the patterns this school teaches, you too can become as rich and famous as he is. He omitted, being born to a trillionaire slumlord. Trump was conning people to waste their savings and emptying their credit cards to buy a fake school and an empty promise. Rightys seem to be OK with that. Leftys find that troubling.
Trump has wormed his way through many scrapes. He has shown deep bigotry and total disrespect for others. His weaseling through the building codes and misusing immigrant labor has been a hallmark of his life. He has cheated contractors regularly, not caring if he put them out of business.
This is who Trump is. Rightys say, "what a great president he would make".
We all hoped the solemnity and power of the presidency would transform him onto a decent human being. He was not cowed at all. He immediately started probing for ways to make it all his. He wanted loyalty to him to supplant loyalty to the country and the Constitution. He weeded out anyone who was not on board, destroying careers with impunity.
When he took McCabe's pension with hours to go, he was sending a message. I stop at nothing. I will gut you if you stand up. He did not care about the money. It wasn't his.

The left is paranoid about guns, the right is paranoid about the left and anything that even hints at socialism. Paranoia makes you susceptible to lies that reinforce your paranoia.Why are conservatives more subsetable to believing lies?

The left does not care about guns. Rights and left want registration. But we all know there are more guns than people and taking them away is impossible. You idiots really believe we are coming for your guns. How cute that is.
Of course, as a righty you do not know what socialism is. There are no socialist countries, they are all mixes. We just think some of the incredible money that workers create should go to the people instead of the rich.

Probably because there are so many things that the Right is objectively wrong about. They have to believe lies in order to hold on to their ideology.

You are surprisingly delusional. Many control freaks have stated that they want to take away all guns. As if guns, and not people, are the source of the problems. And, as I have stated many times, pure socialism doesn't work any better than pure capitalism. What seems to work is taking pieces of each to patch up the great gaping holes in the other.

we believe in protectionism so people can have jobs. why don't you?
because you're a globalist first.
Guns are a constant refrain from the left. The Scandinavian countries are outstanding examples of what I've been saying. They've taken chunks of socialism to patch up some of the great gaping holes in capitalism. Major success stories.The old somebody somewhere said it, therefore, all leftys are for it trick. It gets old. I would love to have all the guns gone. But I also know it cannot happen and I spend about zero time thinking about them. They are not that important to me. There are things we can accomplish to make America a better country.
Socialism does not exist and never has. The Scandinavian countries are capitalistic just like we are. Their people get up and go to work the same as we do. The difference is they tax enough to provide safety nets, universal healthcare, and free education. They live a much less stressful life as a result.
