Can you please apply the same criteria to the extreme liberals and highlight your observations.

Here’s one observation.

In 2020 when the MAGA preferred candidate lost, MAGA conducted a violent riot in Washington DC that interrupted the work of Congress.

In 2024 when the extreme liberal preferred candidate lost, there was gnashing of teeth, but no riots that interrupted the work of elected representatives.

It appears that MAGA is more willing to use violence to express their political opinions than extreme liberals.

I think this is a poor example for 2 reasons.

a) Not everyone, including myself see the 2000 event as a riot or planned government takeover. I think that is a narrative created by the liberals. More importantly most of the people they charged and jailed were not aggressive in any way. They had no weapons and were basically attending a festival atmosphere and their whole life was disrupted. I think the prosecution by the Biden team was horrible. Worse than the ICE activity towards immigrants today!

b) There has been extensively more "riots" and destruction caused by member of the Democratic party over the past 8 years than republicans. It is not even close IMO.

I likely see the landscape different from you:

There are all kinds of human behaviors or responses to life events. Extremists sit on both sides (which I am not convinced that you see, which makes me question your biases). But their behavior is similar regardless of which team they play on.

My big issue is both sides have lost the vision that they play first for Team USA and secondarily for the individual parties.

I also want to point out that someone is not stupid or uninformed if they don't see world events the same way that you do. They are just different.

However I can confidently say that the USA is way better off with Trump than Harris or Biden. Unfortunately those were the choices at hand. We can only vote for the choices offered up.

FWIW, I voted for Obama and view Clinton very favorably.
