Trump fans can't distinguish between people making fun of them and people ridiculing Trump, which only adds to the entertainment value.
Because they make an emotional investment in a symbol, then transfer it to a person. Therefore ab attack on Trump is an attack on their identity.

Agree with all of this. They take it as a subtle insult if you're not as far down the rabbit hole as they are.
That's why it's so weird that in my daily life I'm viewed as a conservative, even a Trump supporter, but on here unless you're into devoted hero worship, you're a lefty.
