You apparently missed the convention that took place the week before.
I don't recall the RNC having to turn off the lights for entire sections so the protesters couldn't be seen. I don't recall large segments walking out. I don't recall the music getting turned up to drown out the protests. I don't recall people with tape over their mouths.
I'm about ready to think all primaries should be closed. May be even have primaries for dues paying members. But, I'd get jailed for voter suppression.
That's where the Ds made their mistake. Bernie was not even a Democrat and his supporters were novices.
I also think open primaries played a part with the Republicans nominating Trump.
Trump has never once acknowledged that there are AMERICAN Muslims that deserve the same rights and considerations as any other American.
And so, we get this:
"Several weeks ago, in Washington, D.C., a Muslim woman was called “a worthless piece of Muslim trash” and a “terrorist” by a fellow Starbucks customer and, presumably, American citizen. After pouring something on the Muslim woman, the assaulter told her victim that she was planning on voting for Donald Trump, who would send Muslims “back to where you come from.”"
Of course this family should remind all of us of their sacrifice.
The RNC could have done the same.
But we know that they clearly chose not to.
Boy, that's a reach. So it's Trump's fault for someone calling a Muslim a terrorist, and not the fault of all the Muslim terrorism that has been happening in the world (once every 84 hours in the last three months)?
I'm by defending this type of behavior at all, but I'm not blaming it on Trump. Did you also know there has been a lot more anti-semitism on college campuses lately? Should we blame that on the dems for all their talk about Palestine?

Voting only for the "elite"?
