Human Nature

[Ivan Denisovich]

I think it's human nature to act poorly in distress.  Trump voters are clearly distressed.  Their fears are imaginary, but that's not a problem for fear.  Fear and susceptibility to fear is probably a thing that isn't equal among people.  Cowardice is, in general, a pejorative term in any language.  Bravery an honorific.

And again we return to this dastardly human nature which - coincidentally I'm sure - touches only trump voters. This is exactly why I dismiss this human nature crap - it's nothing more than vehicle for feeling better and looking down on others as inherently worse people.

People running around afraid of their own shadows is how you get the trumps.

I won't deny that fear plays a role. Democrats in my view aren't blameless in this however - as far as I am concerned if a party couldn't find anyone to defeat this imbecile then this party is a failure. trump is like Brezhnev on his last days and yet he still won. I don't know about you but for me this is a sign that his opponent sucked donkey balls to say it delicately.
