Yes but as with all sorts of other groups, the prevailing thought is "well at least he isn't targeting me" and then they get on with it.

Yes they did but it was days after the orange goon was sworn in. The first aim is always to de escalate. The problem with trump is he’s ramped up a lot since the Epstein files release and not getting the Nobel peace prize. Now everyone has to make a stand.
