Visiting their forums provides a lot of insight. I wouldn't say they're all insane - Just extremely full of hate and resentment.

One thread said how great and fun it would be to murder trans women by dragging them with a truck. Another made fun of the gravesite of a transgender woman who died of suicide.

There really is palpable hatred in the air. Trumpers are like angry teenagers right now, lashing out at anything and everything to relieve their angst. They're dangerous and escalating, and we should be worried.
