I'm not minimizing anything.

People love to gloss over real racism in the electorate, and pretend like the big bad boogeyman of Cambridge Analytica tricked people's parents into voting racist. That's just not what happened.

Those people were enjoying Fox News for 20 years before Cambridge Analytica. Trump won because of extreme voter suppression, clear and simple.

The attitudes of those Trump voters didn't change before or after the election.

If you want to know what's going on with the upcoming indictment of Donald J. Trump for his activities to overthrow the 2020 election, read less Maggie Haberman and more @emptywheel. This article is enlightening as hell:

Since July 1 you no longer need a concealed weapon permit to carry firearms in Florida

Ben T. Davis Beach, FL:

A 7-year-old was shot in the head and his grandfather was shot in the hand trying to defend the child

This escalated when the grandfather told people on jet skis they were endangering children

There were 17 mass shootings over the July 4th holiday
This year so far:
360 mass shootings
923 children under 18 murdered

It’s the guns.
