You don't think almost half of the electorate, that elected Trump, believes that this is a political hatchet job? I was amazed until I kept hearing more and more conservative friends saying it. This "conspiracy non-sense" is a fundamental point of disagreement between "their side" and yours and widely believed across GOP voters. So, while I get you may not have intended to call a majority of political opponents mentally ill, in reality, you have, because their views that you find crazy are widely believed. GOP voters are not mentally disturbed generally, they are deluded and misled by people who are very influential and master persuaders, the king of which is the President.
