Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsSo we have a candidate for President encouraging
violence against his opponent on national TV and it's business as usual. An icy finger touched my heart tonight. This man isn't just a buffoon, I consider him a direct threat to me and my family and until all reasonable people begin to take him personally, this will get worse.
Is the media on this Please tell me they caught it

(67,782 posts)....about the "press conference" this morning and how it pissed off ALL of the media, including Fox, and there is speculation that he'll go back to being the fiery, no-holds-barred asshole candidate he was during the primaries and early GE campaign.
George II
(67,782 posts).....having an in-depth discussion about it.
This is not going to go away or end well for him, even republican voters are going to leave him.

(17,390 posts)Along with the rise of racist, nationalistic rhetoric. The racism, sexism and intolerance was always there. Trump has just been far more obvious about it.
It will be interesting what future Republicans do to top Trimp's act, particularly if Trump wins the presidency.

or the harm?
IronLionZion
(45,528 posts)because he can say nonsense like that, and some deranged asshole somewhere can take that as a call to action. Trump doesn't actually have to do anything or know who is going to do it on his behalf. It's a much worse situation.
And people should never think for a second that Trumpers will stop at immigrants. Those jackbooted thugs will come after feminists, gays, educated white liberals, and anyone else who doesn't toe the line. They view all of us as their enemies and beating people up at rallies is only the beginning.

(22,671 posts)They feed upon their own hate, building and building upon it. They love saying it. They love hearing it. What else do they have to talk about? He has no policies, no plans for the future and no idea about what a president's responsibilities are.
SICK!!! Which is why it's so grounding to hear the positive message coming from democrats about a future we can look forward to.
