Prominent/Public Figures Face Death Threats For Openly Being Anti Trump/GOP. Even From RW Christians

We face a new reality that death threats have become the new normal if you openly appose Trump in particular and even the GOP and you are a known public figure. Even a Christian leader and author is facing such threats for apposing Trump and accepting gay marriage. Booker has had to get protection. And it goes on and on every day.

At some point a notable figure is going to get injured and possibly even killed the way we are going. The rhetoric from the RW and white supremacist movement gets more incendiary every day. And Fox is stoking the anger 24/7 with Fox and Friends being the worst.

The RW and conservatives and RW churches have pretty much declared war on the progress of the last 120 years. And they have declared a virtual state of war against progressive and liberal ideas and civil rights. Trump is aiding and abetting.
