    It’s a sign of distress.
    They were distressed, but it’s only because they’re sore losers and couldn’t cope with Trump losing.
    This is actual distress, it’s appropriate this time.

      Off-topic:

      My impression is the most folks who voted for Trump did so because they genuinely, honestly believed that he is really and truly and antiestablishment rebel… Who is genuinely trying to help the working poor.

      Which they are [working poor.] (and, goes w/o saying, were hoodwinked by said ConMan… Just like all those retirees who voted for Ronald Reagan… And then were shocked and pissed when he immediately cut their Social Security.)

      In short,… Please don’t blame cult victims who’ve been deceived by s/o they misperceive as an authentic, charismatic individual.

      I could say the same thing about my parents, who (still) strongly support(ed) Biden, despite being equally strongly opposed to things he & his cronies did.

      They believed the lies.
