The leftists try to break norms all the time, the right seeks to restore those norms that protect liberties while preserving traditions.  They try to break the norm of respect for the flag, pledge and anthem.  They try to break the norm of man and woman, of masculinity and femininity, and the natural, traditional and common sense definition of marriage.  They try to break the norm of humanity adapting to changes in weather and climate.  They try to break the norm of self-reliance and individual responsibility.  They try to break the norm of traditional morality and religious faith, as they seek to twist faiths to serve their own politics.

Trump was elected on a wave of reaction to leftist subversion, and it came as a shock to leftists who thought the public had validated leftist effort to upend peace and prosperity..
