He sounded like a moron...the most un-Presidential things I have ever heard have spewed from this idiot's pie hole...

“I’d like to punch him in the face, I’ll tell you.”

“In the good old days this doesn’t happen, because they used to treat them very, very rough.”

“I love the old days. You know what they used to do to guys like that when they were in a place like this? They’d be carried out on a stretcher, folks.”

“If you see somebody getting ready to throw a tomato, knock the crap out of them, would ya? Seriously. Just knock the hell out of them.”


He demonizes protesters at his rallies as “vicious,” and on Sunday several times he repeated the lie that the man who stormed the stage in Ohio was linked to ISIS.

At a press conference in Florida earlier on Friday, Trump was asked about his rhetoric in the wake of an incident in which a supporter at a rally in Fayetteville, North Carolina,
sucker-punched a black man in the face.

While he wasn't asked about that specific altercation, Trump said of violent behavior in general at his events: "The audience hit back and that's what we need a little bit more of."

He also praised people using physical force at his rallies as "appropriate."

All the times Trump has called for violence at his rallies

These are anarchists who hide their faces. The women's march had half a million and there was no violence.

The liberals are really doing a good job of causing people to stay away from the Dem party.

Interesting how the truth about the Democratic Party's liberal radical supporters are being exposed to the American people.

We also cannot normalize hate speech as that is how Fascism and dangerous and radical forms of government infiltrate.
Who decides what is "hate speech" you? Is it the left or right? Who exactly and what criteria should be used?

Odd how the Right ridicules and condemns them while the Left remains silent in speaking out against the violence and destruction of the anarchists.


You both have no point at all.

Nothing personal, but it is kind of a ridiculous question. I take personal responsibility for myself, not others over whom I have no control.

I don't endorse anyone acting violently or destructively, and I disagree with extremism in general, but I don't feel 'proud' or 'ashamed' of people I don't know. I do understand the anger, but don't condone violence. Happy?

Now, about those Stormfront and Klan members...maybe I missed it, but when was the last time the alt-right condemned their hateful speech and philosophy?

OK, so you don't believe in freedom of speech.

BTW, the founding fathers didn't give us the First Amendment so we could talk about the weather.

You will have to ask members of the alt right (whatever that is). I don't know any.
