Very true. Nor can you make people care about others loosing what they have, if the loss costs those with less nothing. From their perspective it's a so what.

He's not a complete jerk. Some of the so called offensive stuff he said was misconstrued and most of it was probably said for effect (to get attention) in the first place, which is why it's heard less often these days. I heard a montage of the worst stuff he said (starting with the illegals from Mexico stuff) and it wasn't all that bad. I'd have used different language, but if he's our best shot at stopping Hillary, count me in!

Hope you'll reconsider.

It's also why we can not ever win in Syria, Libya, Afghanistan, Iraq and wherever or next target might be. They have nothing to lose.

IMO calling for Stop and Frisk is being a complete jerk. Calling for a policy of killing the families of the "terrorists" is being a complete jerk (actually what I would call this would get deleted by the mods).
