Conservatives genuinely delight in the harm of the innocent. You can see this in their humor. Their jokes almost always punch down or involve someone being insulted or victimized. This was true before Trump and is still true now. The difference is they are much more bold about it now.

Their jokes are a lot like their serious choices and expressions in that respect.
