It’s weird the personal amount of attention these people give to hating their politicians and wanting to personally harm them. Like, I hate Trump, but really I just want him to go to jail, I’m not going to throw my life away for somebody that detestable.

It’s because it’s All About Them. Their (as fragile as spun-sugar) ego is all-important, and anything that threatens it has to go. And since they wrap their ego up in Being a Republican, and Being a Strong White Man, and all the racist bullshit that goes with that stance, that makes Harris is a physical manifestation of everything they hate. Such ‘challenges’ to their ego cannot be allowed to exist.

Same. I just want trump to face actual consequences for his criminal activity, and for him to never be relevant to politics EVER again.

I honestly wish I could block trump like in black mirror. So whenever his face comes up on my screen it's automatically blurred. His voice gets a long "bleeeep" for however long he's talking. That'd make me happy. I'm sick of seeing his ugly mug and hearing his shitty words everywhere.
