No, it was Trump in the primaries who started the rhetoric of personal insults. When before was there an issue as to the size of a candidate's penis?

Plus, tit for tat is a response for the second grade. Gingrich's mom called Hillary 'outside of her name' and Hillary invited the woman to tea. Did you ever see Trump react in that manner?

The hatred started when the oligarchs discovered it was a fantastic way to divide the nation. They now spend a lot of money spreading hatred and the strategy works.

But once you can identify that this is happening all around us and more importantly, do not take the bait, then their strategy fails.

Lol, if anyone is hurling insults it's that poster you replied to. Talk about calling the kettle black!

Because you have no counter-argument to Truth.

The facts are out there, it is all open source information. I say again, address the points in my posts and we can have a healthy discussion. If you are an informed individual you should be aware of the things I have posted about.

You don't have to do the "it's all BS" deflection or the "comes from biased sources" excuse.

Address the facts about Donald Trump. It's all out there. It should be easy for you.

You are the one who called me "nasty".

All I did was post the facts. If that scares you I can see why you don't wish to address them directly.

Shadowboxing seems to be popular around here, MAGA types are always fighting some make believe bogeyman. Pretending Trump is being 'persecuted' or whatever ... he even publicly admits his crimes (as foolish as that is) and still you people are trying to blame "the Dems" .. it's laughable.

Trump is not a victim, he'a a perpetrator. You are the victim of that flim-flam man. He lies to YOU and you buy into it.

The rest of us just stand by in astonishment.

Another deflection ^^^^^.

The truth sometimes hurts, but it's still best if addressed.

Hate for Trump goes back to his daddy, who was a racist slum lord. This song is about hating Trump from 70 years ago:

Old Man Trump - Woody Guthrie 1954
[Verse 1]
I suppose that Old Man Trump knows just how much racial hate
He stirred up in that bloodpot of human hearts
When he drawed that color line
Here at his Beach Haven family project

[Chorus]
Beach Haven ain't my home
No, I just can't pay this rent
My money's down the drain
And my soul is badly bent
Beach Haven is Trump’s Tower
Where no black folks come to roam
No, no, Old Man Trump!
Old Beach Haven ain't my home

[Verse]
I'm calling out my welcome to you and your man both
Welcoming you here to Beach Haven
To love in any way you please and to have some kind of a decent place
To have your kids raised up in

[Chorus]
Beach Haven ain't my home
No, I just can't pay this rent
My money's down the drain
And my soul is badly bent
Beach Haven is Trump’s Tower
Where no black folks come to roam
No, no, Old Man Trump!
Old Beach Haven ain't my home


OMG, I didn't know that song existed.

And Guthrie never published it.

It was uncovered by chance by a Guthrie scholar from the UK who was going research at the Guthrie Archives in Oklahoma seven months after Trump came down the escalator.
