I think he is hated because he is making a generation of people either grow a set and start being Americans or smacking the politically correct feminine men across the face with the pure unadulterated truth. My kids will be shown Trumps videos and rallies and speeches over and over to show them America wasn't always such a pathetic sniveling shadow of its self. There WERE and still are PEOPLE that refuse to be politically correct and kiss everyone's butt so they don't hurt some feelings. My oldest daughter LOVES listening to Trump. Amazing a 10 year old doesn't buy into the leftist hype about him.

Either her health will FINALLY and THANKFULLY crap out or someone that hates her so much will pull a stunt. She is more hated than Obama EVER WAS.
Wow FBI stuff

It was Senator Gary Hart (D-CO), a politician not particularly remembered for spinal fortitude, who proclaimed that "You cannot love your country, and hate its government". I tend to disagree, but not in such a simplistic manner.

The history of my nation parallels the development of what has come to be called the Enlightenment; and the Enlightenment in turn spawned the Industrial Revolution. That quantum shift in the use, and control of authority led to the continued diffusion of power among an ever-expanding, but qualified electorate. The dispersal of a privilege formerly restricted to landed mature males came about entirely through the free exchange of human opinion.

Unfortunately for all of us, it has become increasingly likely that various special interest groups are willing to undercut the democratic process via various tactics which threaten to make a mockery of the elaborate system of checks and balances which were crafted as a defense against tyranny. It has happened before, most notably during Reconstruction and the depths of the Great Depression, but we are again edging closer to the precipice.

I will always love my country, and the real principles for which it stands; but i reserve the right to oppose those who would hijack it, and seek to turn it into something little better than a banana republic.

As far as the FBI goes I make more extreme comments on my facebook along with the people I am associated with or/and have been known to be associates of I am sure I am on the FBI radar. I can't say I would shed any tears if she dies....either way....doesn't bother me at all. I am sure you and your liberal friends say and think the same of Trump so quell the fake whining.

Indeed! They sit and watch the news with me when he speaks. I am not a ******* I don't need to hide anything from my kids. I don't need to protect them and give them a safe place to cry like a pathetic snowflake. This is a harsh world and full of EVIL anti American people like liberals and the sooner they know the enemy the better and the sooner they hear a Pro American person speaking the better.

I love the false outrage from those who have spent the past almost 8 years attacking President Obama and denying his legitimacy as President but are aghast that people might not support the Orange Menace. Fortunately, those on the #NeverTrump train won't be in a position of having to ever face supporting him as President since his inevitable loss becomes clearer every day.

Either Hillary will win or Trump will. Kind of hard to support a lying fraud like Hillary and just as hard to support her male counterpart. Neither in my opinion put America before their own personal greed.
