Whether he wanted one or not, this has been building and festering for quite awhile. Long before Trump those of us who paid attention have been noticing for years our freedoms and privacy slowly but surely get chipped away. Slowly but surely we watched as regulation upon regulation and tax upon tax get heaped on our heads. It all added up until 4 yrs ago, along came a brash, rather obnoxious man who was none too skilled in oratory, give many the first real glimmer of hope and permission to be proud of America for the first time in decades. We saw RINO after RINO come along and take away parts of Americs over time. Bush was the absolute worst with the signing of that cursed patriot act.
For the next four years it was nothing but a ruthless onslaught of physical attacks and verbal insults against trumps cabinet, and his supporters. The hatred for Trump has been bizarre because of its demonic level. It is WAY above and beyond any reason and rationalization. Much of the left doesnt even bother to pretend to have any respect anymore for the average citizen that supports Trump. It has finally come to a head. You can't treat people like that and not expect them to blow up.

Correct, you can only push people so far before they hit a breaking point.

He's stopped at least three wars so far... Syria, Korea, Ukraine.

I like and agree with most of your post, but don't really see DT as being obnoxious or 'none too skilled in oratory".

He IS obnoxious to those who unjustly attack him. On the other hand, if you really listen to how the guy conducts himself in meetings,, greetings, in praise of certain people, in interviews, etc., he is one of the most gracious people I've run across. In fact some who have had to interact with him and expected what you described, were shocked to learn he was nothing like that.

Additionally, some of the best speeches I've heard have come from DT; and he is unequaled in extemporaneous and even impromptu expression.

I suppose I should say brash and obnoxious by oily politician standards. There have been some comments he's made that I would not allow my son to get away with saying. Such as calling miss America miss piggy. The Bush recording was most distasteful, but he is absolutely correct in assessing the morals of Hollywood. But had my boy brokered historic middle east peace, brought millions of jobs in, and made fair the trade agreements that were draining us dry, maybe I'd let it pass, or at least NOT washed his mouth out with soap.

But the bottom line is that those of you here that thought we were in bad shape under Trump haven't seen anything yet.
You got what you wanted with trump out. Let's see in a few years if you want what you got.

I don't know who was behind it but it sure played out exactly like a color revolution. Now you are a terrorist if you even mention fraud.

Yep also another video shows the same people who ran in the capital taking selfie’s with the security there. It was staged and now it was used an excuse to rapidly certify the election results. So sickening.
