Sadly, so is most of humanity. People feel first and rationalize it after the fact. If people really were "logical" in the sense that we understand it then we wouldn't have many problems. Everyone would get along in harmony by and large and nobody would reflexively hate others based on superficial characteristics like skin color, religious affiliation, and all the other myriad ways we foolish humans decide who is "us/we" and who is "them" so that we may gladly and joyously kill all of "them" so that us/we can live happily ever after.
Logic judges people on an individual basis, emotions judge them in very broad strokes for frivolous and fallacious reasons. Pretty easy to see which one is preferable to the majority. I don't like it, in fact I hate it, but that's how it is. Like I said earlier, this current nastiness is simply the result of the "right" abandoning its reliance on logic. Trump don't rely on it for shit, he's going straight for the emotions. His effectiveness in this regard is simply a revelation of the method as occultists would term it. By doing what he's doing, he's showing us all "the truth" in a very subtle way. Only fools think humans are logical, we're all emotional wrecks, our logic serves our emotions, to ever think it was otherwise is delusion

For reference the Left has been operating on this level since the 60's and it was codified by Saul Alinsky. Now the right is fighting fire with fire and the Left just simply isn't prepared for that. It's kinda outta left field for the people using nukes for decades to suddenly face an equivalent weapon system. Imagine if the Japs answered Hiroshima with a Mushroom Cloud over San Fransisco or something. Quite the stalemate y'might say.
