The projection is embarrassing. / As you have witnessed, this is a phenomenon [the rising populist Right] that’s not here [pointing to his head], it’s emotional [pointing to his heart]. I call it the politics of high blood pressure./ Meanwhile Trump supporters are being beat up at rallies.. The cognitive dissonance is astounding. If we could get them laid we could end the movement. No dummy, if you would stop moving our mortal enemies into our cities we might stop. If you limit the elite from performing snatch and grab schemes, we might stop. If you could roll back the Orwellian control of governments, we might stop. If you bring back the spirit of hearth and home instead of every man for himself, we might stop. These people have no place in politics. They have no ties to the everyman.
