A friend and I just had a conversation where he said he didn’t know which of the rw fascists were worse: the True Believers who don’t care what Trump does, they are “with him to the end” and don’t feel there is anything Trump could do that can change their minds and that he’s the only one “standing up for America” OR the cynical supporters who just see an opportunity for them to gain power or just hurt people they hate or fear.
I said it was the True Believers who are the real danger, because they are the ones who would go out and shoot people. They are the potential suicide bombers.
The cynical opportunists?
They won’t risk anything, and certainly not their own precious skin.
They will use the True Believers to do the dirty work.
There’s a reason that some of the Jan. 6 ringleaders were sitting at home or in a DC hotel room: they weren’t willing to put any actual skin in the game.
