Your question about Trump is the right one. The people who claim he's a traitor or criminal can never offer a single example to back up either claim. He's been investigated by half the country and nothing has happened; instead, we find out that things like the collusion story were false. Yes, he's obnoxious. He's always been obnoxious. He was obnoxious when Oprah had him on, when Morning Joe couldn't stop interviewing him, when various politicians went to him hats in hand, etc. He's the one guy of whom no one can claim to be surprised at what we got.
Yes, Alex, Trump's larger-than-life persona positively reveled in stirring controversy, but to be fair to him, the media never let up on him from the word go, so it was somewhat understandable. What's really surprising is the reaction of people like John, and later Glenn, who claim to abhor CRT, support school choice, reject the 1619 project, denounce wokeness and tech censorship, and yet not realize that they were actually in total agreement with Trump on all those issues, in contrast to Biden who is vehemently against the same issues! It's all the more inexplicable as John and Glenn are not your average Joe, but remarkably intelligent academicians who are not usually taken in by media hype.
