1/4 I lived & watched all the #Watergate & #Clinton hearings. I was in HS & college during Watergate. Both progressed in an orderly fashion that never had me fearful that our democracy was in jeopardy. I can’t say that with this #TrumpRussiaGate. I’m analyzing & racking
2/4 my brain for explanations, reassurances & to make sense of what’s happening. This time bc of the significant #GOPcultism however, I’m fearful we’re heading towards a dictatorship—loss of our democracy that my USMC Dad gave 30 yrs of life in 2 wars to protect. A NPRK replica.
3/4 In my quest to truly understand what makes #Trump supporters tick-what are their concerns/needs? Why are they so angry? Why are they so fearful of brown/black ppl? Are they racist or scared? Does poverty & ⬇️educ play a role?
4/4 Do they realize the DJT policies that are being enacted behind the scenes that are NOT in their favor- that will actually hurt them? Are they unable to research or are they so committed to the #MAGA cult that such an act would be traitorous to loyalty demanded by the leader?
