More DUmmie paranoia

His plumber may have voted for Trump.... and now he feels real fear
   
Ned Resnikoff is the senior editor at ThinkProgress, and had the following interaction he posted on Facebook:

As quoted from USA Today:

Ned Resnikoff, a “senior editor” at the liberal website ThinkProgress, wrote on Facebook that he’d called a plumber to fix a clogged drain. The plumber showed up, did the job and left, but Resnikoff was left shaken, though with a functioning drain. Wrote Resnikoff, “He was a perfectly nice guy and a consummate professional. But he was also a middle-aged white man with a Southern accent who seemed unperturbed by this week’s news.”

This created fear: “While I had him in the apartment, I couldn’t stop thinking about whether he had voted for Trump, whether he knew my last name is Jewish, and how that knowledge might change the interaction we were having inside my own home.”

When it was all over, Resnikoff reported that he was “rattled” at the thought that a Trump supporter might have been in his home. “I couldn’t shake the sense of potential danger.”


This is the world we now live in. Who in your daily interactions voted for Donald Trump? And what are they capable of? And what happens starting on Jan 20th when they feel as if they are no longer held back by the rule of law, and that the Administration will have their back when they start "the purge" they are so desperately wanting? Scary times.....

Most of the DUmmies think that the author of this piece is an absurd bed-wetter, but of course some of them get on board with the stupidity.

8. Before I hire a new trades person, I ask
 
who did you vote for. If they say Trump, I tell them I don't want their services and won't give them my money.

What do you say when they say "None of your ****ing Business"?

12. I think thats a good strategy
 
But I would extend it beyond those in the trades. How about those teaching your children? Your doctor? 

This is how to mole properly.

14. And my dentist.
 
I walked out in the middle of a dental cleaning a couple of years ago because they were repukes. In my interview is all new people, I ask if they are Democrats. They get my money.

Boozeman is my senator and I'm planning on taking a packaged Tyson chicken to his optometry office to see if they will trade for an eye exam. I could throw in a jar of canned beans as well.

How do they have these long, detailed discussions with their dentists?  My dentist has this odd tendency to stick her fingers and various pointy instruments in my mouth when I go see her, which generally precludes having any meaningful conversation.

40. My neighbor had a Trump loving painter show up at his house with a gun.
 
He said he heard his wife yelp and was startled to see a man at his door with a gun. He thought he was going to be robbed, and the man seemed quite unaware of the anxiety he had caused, pointing to the work contract he wanted signed. My neighbor asked why he would come to their home carrying a weapon and the painter told him that it was for his safety.

Evidently words were exchanged and the painter demanded money for his time, then the cops had to be called to force him to leave their property. When the painter turned his van around, my neighbor said his bumper was plastered with Trump signs. His wife says they're going to make sure the next painter is not a gun toting Trump fan.

Bounce, bounce, bounce....

55. My sister had to dump both her hairdresser and HVAC guy
 
The hairdresser had been haranguing her with Hillary hate and no matter how many times my sister told her to stop, she persisted.

The day after the last debate, her longtime air-conditioning guy brought up the election out of the blue and started screaming about "tearing babies out of the mother up to the last moment of pregnancy". He bought Trump's bullshit.
It really spooked my sister.

These people have no boundaries.

And more bounce....

61. Living in GA, I'm always mindful of the possibility of someone I've hired
 
being a member of the KKK or worse. Sometimes I have no choice but to hire businesses that are located in more rural areas. That they voted republican is usually a given, so I don't dwell on that part.

For the people mocking that author, just know that it is an unsettling thing to contemplate. Our homes are our sacred, safe spaces... Unknowingly inviting a truly deplorable / unhinged person into our homes could easily turn into a safety issue (although for me, being a woman amplifies certain risks, and the threat is from deplorables in general, not just tRumP voters).

And of course the KKK is always lurking in the bushes.

ZERO Bongs all around. I'm pretty sure that you don't get to interview the doctor and just go to the local clinic when you are on medicaid.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

Why would somebody with a Jewish last name be afraid of a Trump supporter?

Somebody needs to let the DUmmies know that President-elect Trump is a very strong and vocal supporter of Israel.

An anti-semitic Trump supporter would be voting "against their own interests."

"This is the world we now live in. Who in your daily interactions voted for Donald Trump? And what are they capable of?"
This is indeed the world we live in, in which people are consumed with blind paranoia that someone they come across may have possibly voted for someone they personally disagree with, at times reach that paranoid conclusion based simply on the person's accent and unperturbed bearing, and allow that paranoia to mature into rabid bigotry. Then, they have the gall to openly accuse others of acting based on paranoia and bigotry.
Oh, and btw, the DUmmies are STILL wetting their panties over the KKK?
 Here's a little newsflash for you: The KKK today is a joke. It has maybe 6,000 members nationwide, and they currently wouldn't even think of engaging in the violence and terrorism that they used to, because they know the FBI is watching them like hawks and eager for an excuse to forcibly shut them down for good. I can guarantee ISIS has killed more people in the last two years than the KKK has killed in the last 50 years.

Most of the DUmmies realize that the author of this piece is an absurd bed-wetter, but of course some of them get on board with the stupidity.
FIFY!

It's the mystery of the (D)Marxist supporting Jews.  Many people have tried to explain it, but I still think that, deep down, they don't fully understand it either.
              

Liberal thinking is a two-legged stool and magical thinking is one of the legs, the other is a combination of self-loating and misanthropy.  To understand it, you would have to be able to sit on that stool while juggling two elephants, an anvil and a fragmentation grenade, sans pin.

I can sympathize.

I've had to constantly worry about Bammy and his supporters reaching in my back pocket and stealing my wallet or breaking in my house and robbing me blind for the past 8 years.
It's their turn to worry now.

The difference is, they really don't have to worry because we're not about to do anything but enforce the law.
Hmmmm, maybe that's what has got them so unnerved!!!

63. Thats exactly what we're seeing right now

The average Trump supporter is just what you described. Supposedly hard-working, sociable, etc. etc. However, they harbor hatred in their hearts, and are just waiting for Trump to take charge. The next 6 months will be very interesting. Or maybe even terrifying.

69. I don't have those kind of conversations

with people I don't know well. I have three Hillary signs in the front of my house and will not take them down as long as Trump is in office.

How annoying is that for the neighborhood?  As time goes by (and MN weather), they're going to look tatty and trashy and just stink up the place.

I thought it was "another Trump supporter gets  his schadenboner."

Mine popped again a little while ago so I just chalked it off to DU posts like these.

Really!

A DUmmie would fret and worry over who someone voted for?

   :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:

I could care less who someone voted for or what their political affiliation is.  The only thing that matters to me is:

1)  Whether or not he/she/it can do the job I hired them for, and,
2)  The repairs don't cost more than the machine...

But I rarely hire out my repair work.  The only time a dealer touches my car is for recalls and warranty work.
