re: #157 Scout

Sorry, this won’t be worded very well, but have you folks noticed something about Trump supporters in real life — that is, people you know and deal with in person?

I know one in my office, and since the election he has been much more belligerent in everyday interactions. Not just with me, but with everyone in the office. And not just in talking about politics, but everything. I have a theory that he feels “liberated.” Or maybe just “powerful.”

A friend who lives in Washington state tells me he has experienced the same thing. That when he’s out walking his dog in his neighborhood, the people who had (and still have) Trump yard signs are really snotty.

So I’m just wondering if you have noticed anything similar, or is it our imaginations?

Yep, they’re more belligerent. But many also display a defensive tone/body language.
