  2. I often keep my comments pithy, but I will go for a long comment this time.

    The antagonism we have in this country is due to many factors. It really began with the hatred of the left toward Nixon, who was actually a liberal Republican. After that, the left demonized Reagan, and then the right vilified Clinton. There was much condescension toward W from the left, and finally the right is getting even with Obama. Now Obama has even contributed more to the incivility than the GOP due to his desire to break Americans down according to gender, race, religion, ethnicity, sexual orientation, income class.

    So where are we today? Eerily close to the 1960s war and civil rights era time. The working class has been destroyed by foreign competition and their lack of education. I am generally free trade, but some of our trade deals have not been to our benefit. The Socialists and Communists run our public education system, including state run colleges. This has caused a class of college age people that think that they must be number 1. They are catered to as royalty, and it is always about me, me, me. They are self centered and egotistical (like Trump and Obama). Meanwhile, the blacks feel that with their “man” in the White House, they should be getting more freebies and help. It doesn’t matter if they are ill educated, whitey has been to blame, and it is time for my slice of the pie.

    Now we have the riots in Chicago. Many of these protesters are shiftless paid pros that have nothing else to do but be a pain in the butt. I was listening to Fox News last night, and some pro Boinie protester was yelling cuss words on the air at a Trump fan. Was there any engagement in ideas? No, just name calling.

    Trump ought to be able to have a rally without it being cancelled by anarchists and Communists. It is his First Amendment right. On the other hand, I concur with Rubio and Cruz that the narcissist from New York is partly to blame by his rhetoric and his bullying. At his congregations, his slobbering sycophants listen to Trump saying to punch protesters in the face. His campaign manager pushed a reporter to the ground. When the man at the top acts this way, his legions of bootlickers will follow suit. Do any of the other GOP candidates have participants that slug others, push around people, and act like white trash? No.

    In summary, what goes around comes around. If you are civil, most others will treat your civilly. Act thuggish, and those that like you may do likewise. There is much blame to go around, but it is partially due to Trump.

    Note that I am a Rubio supporter, but will go with Cruz if Rubio drops out of the race.

  4. Lefties don’t seem to realize that their crap fuels the Trump movement. Lot’s of people (me and usually apolitical hubby included) have had it with people that do nothing but make trouble… not trouble in the interest of a good cause but trouble for the hell of it.

    Trump is not my first (or second or third) choice but if a man is known by the enemies he makes, his stock is rising.

    This piece at the NY Post explains Trumpism pretty well.

    My thought is that a Trump vote is a “no confidence” vote. More and more, it’s a “go screw yourself” vote.

  5. “Not a fan of Donald Trump by any means, but what MoveOn.org and #BlackLivesMatter did yesterday was straight-up Fascist Thuggery.”

    The same batmerdecrazy 2%ers as their predecessors of nearly eighty years ago in Germany and the former USSR.

  12. Protest is a right, but where these demonstrators are misinformed, hate speech is protected by the Constitution, if it is acted upon is when a crime is commited. They are using hate speech as means to stiffle free expression. The progressive leaders of Move On.Org, William Ayers, (whose apartment Obama first announced his candidacy for President), Black Lives Matter, and other radical leftist groups financed by George Soros, are instigating anarchy, and should be arrested and tried for revolution and sedition in order to implement marxist socialism.
