    Late to this one, but were police there in riot gear? Or were these the peaceful torch-carrying white nationalists?

    I wish that enabling fascism was something only the worst of humanity did.

    Agreed. A leading insurer pulling out of the nation's 12th largest state warrants a story rather than this. But I'm guessing in an era of design and management teams operating in different cities, real discussion is lessened. Also possible that they decided days ago that they were going to do it this way and they weren't going to change for anything.

    Amazing. Alleged Christians of that stripe (so called evangelicals) now love Russia because Putin opposes LGBTQ rights.

    It is also false to compare BLM, which does not call for the segregation of races, with these Trump voters, some of whom are advocating for a white homeland; yelling epithets; and other saluting Nazi style.

    Politico piece referenced suggests more than one third. As sample sizes go, the total of 10,000 is high.
    So let's say it is off. Let's say that following a racist group on social media does not necessarily mean agreement with such groups. Are we at 20%? That's still a pretty big number. If people with these feelings account for one of every five Trump voters, they decided Wisconsin and Michigan. Maybe another. I don't remember.
