Please CNN. There just is no comparison between what Hillary said about civility and what Trump

says at every rally. The media is responsible for trying to make political opposition speech equal to the hate speech rolling from Trumps foaming lips almost every hour. Maxine Waters was as close to Trump's hate speech as any but even then there was no comparison to her speaking at a political event and Trump using the bully pulpit to incite violence toward groups of people because of their color, sexual identity, or religion.

It's sickening to even try this.

Why wasn't Trump and his supporters asked to "tone down" their rhetoric BEFORE these pipe bombs? Now, everyone is asking the Democrats to tone down their rhetoric just to be able to ask the Trumpsters to tone down their hateful rhetoric.
