I loved the "Anyone but Hillary" signs I saw down here. They stayed put.

I don't know, to maybe have some shred of credibility when discussing politics on this forum.

Thanks for confirming that CONs don't think that facts are important in discussing subjects, only opinions.

I am not confirming anything. I am just saying people have a right to their opinion about anything. One only has to watch/listen/read the news to come to an opinion, whatever that may be.

Geez, so many sad, conservative snowflakes around here lately.

Did those Trump MAGA hats come with a box of tissue to blow their noses?

And your neighborhood is representative of the entire country?

Sounds like a tall tale to me.

I love how you conveniently omitted the well documented and publicised quotes from Trump that incited violence at his own rallies and also failed to mention Obama, Hillary, or Bernie have never stooped so low as to call for violence against those who differ in opinion.

But facts... what are those?

Who needs a link to a news source when what I am stating is an opinion that has been developed through a study of news and eye witness accounts. You can agree with me or disagree but what I would like to hear is an intelligent response to my thoughts. If you need to post links to your rebuttal then that is fine but please don't try to tell me I am wrong in my thoughts or turn to name calling to shout me down.
If you disagree tell me why and I will consider your plea.

We have seen a rise in violence aimed at Trump and anyone who supports him. Yes Trump said many stupid things on the campaign trail and still does as President but how many times did his followers start riots or placed paid people in his rallies for the sole purpose to cause trouble and disrupt?


Locally I saw a guys homemade Trump sign vandalized several times while the Hillary one at the house next door stayed pristine. Trump signs disappeared or were run over. Cars with Trump bumper stickers were vandalized. Where is the tolerence
I have actually lost so called friends because I thought Trump was a better choice then Hillary. The ugliness that has emerged from the so called party of tolerance is despicable.

The things that have been said about Trump are terrible. Kathy Griffin deserves the backlash as does anyone who takes their so called comedy too far.

No one who has been paying attention can deny that the amount of hate and false accusations aimed at Trump is unprecedented.
The media is mostly to blame for leading gullible people down the angry path to despair where they feel that they have been backed into a corner and the only thing left to do is strike out with lies and violence and those are the intelligent ones. The other ones are acting like children throwing a tantrum that their parents approve of.

LMAO Killary snowflakes calling Trumpsters snowflakes now.

Let me see if I get this right....when lefties were being mega snowflakes for weeks after the election, you were offended by being called a snowflake. Now for some reason you lefties are calling conservatives snowflakes. What am I being a snowflake about? My country being torn apart by radical, self-serving groups that Obummer put a seal of approval on? Yep, real snowflake. You want to call me that, then I will be proud of it.

Did you read your own original post!? It was full of outrageous opinions and insults. But you're looking for intelligent responses?

Were you around for the last 8 years? So I guess the Tea Party was kind to Obama and cooperated with him? I guess Fox News and Breitbart were so incredibly supportive of Obama??

You're talking about false accusations against Trump....when Trump himself tried to campaign that Obama was not even an American citizen. He pushed that agenda for several years, until Trump himself admitted Obama was born in America.

I love how you talk poorly of Obama, yet I can say that he never once in 8 years was investigated for a crime.

Trump hasn't even been in office for 6 months and he is surrounded by controversy, his NSA Director had to quit due to illegal activities, and Donald himself is currently being investigated by the Dept of Justice for Obstruction of Justice and financial crimes.


You got a snarky comeback for that one? Or is everything I said "fake news?"

Trump is reaping exactly the kind of crap he sowed. All the years of birther crap, all the horrific rhetoric he spewed on the campaign trail about every other candidate on both sides of the aisle, every crap tweet he sends out. He has diligently planted the harvest he is reaping right now.
