And before you get all deranged on me -- I didn't say it is all Trump's fault....but there is a climate of incivility that is most definitely promoted by Trump's behavior -- in addition to others.

No the media doesn't create that incivility......they do not suggest they will hit him harder when he attacks them.

They will criticize his trade policy or lack of health care resolution -- but that's not exactly violent rhetoric.
I don't really care about his affiliation, just glad that he is caught but there were many posts on here claiming this was some sort of leftist conspiracy and were set to pounce. People seem to be more worried about his party affiliation than the fact that he was caught, that to me is ignorant. All the politicians need to take it down a notch, particularly Trump.

Why is that a big difference? Are you using your ignorance of who Maxine Waters is and what she has said as an argument ?

Ok guys, now that we have seen the suspect arrested, and his van is plastered with pictures of Donald Trump and all kinds of Republican loving stickers, are we going to get an apology from your side for saying this was something done by the Democrats to drum up sympathy ?


This guy was a Trumpee of the first magnitude , and you all tried to spin it that this was somehow our doing. So...…....are we going to get those apologies ?

LOL. No, no, no! Now we have to start hearing Trump lie about the crowd size again.

Trump will defensively claim that he was only one of billions there.

That pic is what someone posted on Twitter after seeing the van on tv. He took the pic a couple of years ago and remembered that he had it because he wondered if it's the same van.

Instead it is a Republican. DUH?!
Before this guy was arrested I believed that that was a possibility. So frankly I'm glad it turned out to be a Trumpie instead.

Agreed, but if he had been a Democrat, there are plenty of people on this site who would claim Maxine Waters was responsible.
