What a Teddy Bear!
And honeymooned in the country that he loved so much, the USSR, who exterminated millions of their citizens.

Protest at a Sanders rally, he'll engage you. Protest at a Trump Rally and you'd better hope he gets his security detail to drag your arse out of there (before his frothy supporters beat the crap out of you).

It's not a smear campaign when it is actually happening (and there is plenty of video, and even Trump himself, to back up the validity of what is being reported).

The thing I find ridiculous is how he's manipulated the press to get so much coverage, and how he's manipulated the uneducated (whom he loves) to be such willful followers. Scary!

Total nonsense. You have no idea what an actual racist is.

You are yet ANOTHER example that shows that the Left has one and only one political tactic: Call everyone else a racist... all the time.

That's it... that is LITERALLY all the Left does. It is a textbook example of intellectual bankruptcy.

It's completely pathetic, what they don't understand is that this sort of behavior is responsible for driving even more voters to vote for him. The guy is not even remotely racist or authoritarian. If someone isn't politically correct these days then according to the media he's the next coming of Adolf.

Nobody except hysterical elites and their followers believe that Trump is a fascist, it's just not reality and it's a picture painted by people who dislike him for one reason or another. If you're not politically correct, the media won't endorse you - it's that simple.

The irony is that you are the one fueling his rise

Obviously he's the worst sexist racist dictator the world will ever see, everybody panic!!

Oh wait, why have his polls gone again?? Time for another series of hit pieces in the papers - maybe that will do the job this time

This was back in march, told you so

Not one poster, paid or otherwise, not one blogger, not one pundit, not one tv talk show host, not one news anchor, not one person in the entire country who voted for hillary or wanted her to win has said:

"good game, congrats to President Trump and his supporters on the win, i'm putting America first so i'm going to stand by our new President and support him for the good of the country"

Not one person.

i'm still waiting for someone from the other side to step up for the good of the country and support this great man.

You're not being asked to support HIM, you're being asked to support America. He is your president whether you like it or not, so you can be anti-american and not support him, or you can put the country first and your interests second, and support him. Why does it have to be about YOU?

You have your own version of "the best kind of person" so I'm not sure you're able to be objective. Dignity, ok but that can keep you trapped. Ideals, everyone thinks theirs are the best. Education, what kind? I see some stupid college majors and students that are dumb as dirt and can't think critically.

The Hillary voters didn't do their homework, they put national security at risk by trying to elect an emotionally and mentally unstable war monger who's talked about 'droning' people, she would have engaged in war with Russia or someone else, she wouldn't have 'worked with' them to rid our world of terrorists, anyone who's paying attention already sees, within one week, how much more 'fit' Trump is to lead this nation, she's lashing out like a scorned schoolgirl after the election and having to be physically restrained, good god, what would we have done had we elected her, i get chills just thinking about how close to the apocalypse we came.
