In the wake of a Harris win, most Trump supporters will experience disappointment and pain as they come to terms with reality. But the fog of deception will continue to cling to a segment of the Maga electorate, especially for those conditioned to reject reality. They will continue to be stuck in the first two stages of grief (denial and anger) on a loop. The truth is, they have been on that Ferris wheel for a long time. Good people naturally follow the path of grief through bargaining and depression all the way to acceptance. But, if the grieving process gets sabotaged by the validation of the denial and anger of a critical mass of one’s peers, bad things can happen. This is how mobs form—individual grievances weave together to create a narrative that legitimizes the fear, fuels the collective pain, and, like a chain reaction, can boil over into mob violence. This is what happened on January 6, 2021. And it could happen again.
