I love telling my conservative christian friends that Trump is the False Prophet that their bible warns them about, and where is says the followers wear the mark of the beast upon their heads, that;s their red hats. They can get very defensive, meaning: I've struck a nerve!
I'm also enjoying spreading the fake news story (yep, I made it up. It's what they do, so...) that there are a few progressive lawmakers who are happy with the GOP efforts to prevent making our elections more secure, because they are hoping for China, and a few other more progressive countries to get involved and help the Democrats win more. And that I'm ok with that too, I mean, we can play the game too, as long as we know the rules, right?
Aw..don't tease the genetically weak-minded. They're vaguely aware they're missing knowledge that most urban people seem to possess..like the ability to read, etc.
People with extreme political views have trouble with metacognition; thinking about their own thinking. They are unaware of the reasons for their own behavior and beliefs, and facts don't matter to them.
