It backfired if those fools out there protesting were trying to stop Trump.

All it does is reinforce Trump's talking points. Works for me. Obviously, these protesters have to have the intelligence of turnips since they seem to have no idea that protesting has limits. Of course, when it comes to illegals, the laws don't apply to them anyway. Let's get that changed. Trump 2016!

That was their stated objective. I would suggest that the TV time they did get, did nothing for their cause. I see a lot of new Trump voters across the USA due to their actions.

What we're seeing is the start of a civil war. So far it's been pretty much peaceful but as things ratchet up this could certainly change very quickly.

I hope those in favor of these tactics and those that employ them like American Communist party and the Socialist/Anarchist rabble realize the match they're lighting and that it could very well burn all of us badly.

Apparently the woman who bike chained herself to the vehicle (See OP), is a George Soros Fellow. They are paid upwards of $100K for this type of stuff.

As I've said in another post, a can of bear spray would've ended this very, very fast. Shoots 30 ft and creates a HUUUUUGE cloud.
Those fools would've been gagging,spitting and crying for their mommy doing their very best to exfiltrate as quick as possible.

Sheriff Arpaio for all his bravado took way too long to open up the road. he was on CNN being interviewed while his posse were standing around. In fact, I didn't see his deputies actually remove the demonstrators. Looks like they left on their own.

Does anyone know what percentage of americans are trump supporters?
Are there any accurate / neutral numbers?
Seems to me that they are a very loud minority.
If so your notion of a potential civil war is more like a fantasy.
But i'm sure that many would like to see that happen. Angry, frustrated and bored as they are.

Most those advocating for a civil war would sit home and watch it on their Flat Screen.

You would like to think that but you are mistaken. I think there are many Trump supporters out there that are actually silent in their support but either way you'll know his support come election time. That's the only accurate gauge we have at this point.

I hope you're not linking or think I'm linking any particular candidate with what I said about a revolution because I'm not. It's much broader than that.
People are TICKED,FRUSTRATED and have had enough, looking to place blame and lashing out. As fast as you see BLM and other groups growing both in size and violence that should give one some idea of what is brewing.
