720. I had the same experience, and it saddened me too with respect to a few posters there,

Jul 2016

but at the same time I am glad to have learned who those people really are.

Until a few days ago, there was an entire forum at JPR dedicated to trashing DU and DUers. Many of those posters I had liked were in that forum, trashing people here in a way that was pretty stunning to me.

I am glad to have had my eyes opened. What I am really sorry about is that I was taken in by trolls.

And so many are supporting Trump now. That tells us a lot. nt pnwmom Jul 2016 #1
