I don't Spitball or share as many intelligent & insightful comments as others do. However, I feel compelled to make some comments on emotional intelligence and maturity in light of the ongoing chaos surrounding the Trai Fuller error debacle.

I would like for you all to imagine the most irrational lefty you know. Picture the college student who is screaming at someone about a topic that they very obviously know little about. The deep state or whatever evil forces that we are dealing with took advantage of that person's lack of maturity and low emotional IQ.

The Deep State (DS) has been working on all of us for decades. Look at what they have been doing to our children. They start in preschool and now expand every degree they can to a doctorate degree so they can keep their hooks in as long as possible.

I would like to think our movement here is higher in emotional intelligence and maturity simply by not being still under control of the DS. However, we are still vulnerable and have some work to do in those regards.

Allowing ourselves to be instantly triggered into a negative emotional response by the slightest of event, negative attitudes and dooming, and the lack of ability to allow each other grace are sure signs that work needs to be done.

There are a few things we need to accept. 1-the DS manipulates every word and situation to their benefit 2- we are all humans who have different thought processes and speech profiles 3- NONE of us are perfect, including our ideas and opinions. If we didn't have differences it would be even more dangerous for us all because we would be off to slaughter with the sheep.

Stop letting THEM sucker us in to emotional responses to EVERYTHING. Take a deep breath and think. Look for alternative sources and additional facts before deciding someone who is on our side is evil and up to something nefarious. It's also important to do these things prior to buying into someone who is pretending to be on our team but is not.

Jumping to conclusions and attacking others negatively impacts the progress of our efforts. Irrational emotions allow one to be easily manipulated. It's the easy way out.Taking time to process and seek out facts can be work. It's difficult in a society that has become accustomed to instant gratification

It is important to practice self control in these areas for all of us and our country if we both want to win and never get back to this type of situation once we do.

Do yourself and everyone else a favor. Relax, appreciate the wins, and give grace. You would want the same if the coin was flipped. We don't want to be like the triggered left.
