Are the Rs finally getting a spine?!

They needed to include Dem activist shooting republicans playing baseball, and all the campus riots and destruction while banning co servatives speakers.
Hope they make more of these and play them 24/7 right before the midterms.

You also won't find one of conservatives rioting in the street and burning cars. Nor will you find a video of a conservative Congressman calling on people to form crowds around a liberal and push back on them.

Your comparisons aren't even close. It's sad someone has to point this out to you since you state you're not pro left nor pro right.
And nor has any conservative used an assault weapon to shoot up dems playing baseball.....

We are watching the unhinged left throw away their chances to make gains in 2018. People are looking at this behavior and thinking "These people are crazy".

The Democrats should formulate a coherent message based on their traditional message of giving the working man a fair deal, with emphasis on economics and stop their insanity based message of race, social justice and resistance. The Democrats often swing far to the left like this, with disastrous results for their party.

We need two strong parties for good governance, so I'm hoping the Democrats return to common sense to be able to compete.

False.

No one claims everything any president has done was good or everything any president did was bad.

Trump is greedier than most, less ethical and not worthy of the office, and oh ... he lies to his base one helluvalot, that's all.

Trump is far worse than Bush or Obama, but they weren't perfect.

That's the problem... there is no coherent message.

What is starting to bubble up is a non-white socialist vibe.

Kathy Griffin and Maxine Waters have become the poster children of what's wrong with liberals in this country. Like it or not, they are constantly in the front page news showing Americans how vile the far left has become.

You do realize that the NK general saluted Trump first, right?
Trump extended his hand to shake, and the general saluted instead.

The problem with this tactic is it's going to be super easy to create a counter ad for the other side... and you can exclusively use Trump clips. Things are pretty crazy all around right now.

If the goal is to convince folks in the middle one side is crazier than the other its kind of a wash. If the goal is to motivate your base to get out and vote against the crazies on the other side them it's also a wash.

It wasn't a photo, it was a video. If you watched the whole video that wasn't edited by the MSM, you can understand how it lead to the salute happening. The general saluted Trump and, being the President, who is expected to return the salute of his military members did the same.
