LePage follows Trump’s path toward violence

http://davidfarmer.bangordailynews.com/2016/03/16/republicans/lepage-follows-trumps-path-toward-violence/

Gov. Paul LePage brought props to his town hall circus, this one in Bath last week.

He and his staff spent their time and state resources to create fake “Wanted” posters for three of the governor’s political opponents.

When LePage’s “Wanted” posters showed up on social media, I had two immediate reactions: “Hey, how come he didn’t make one for me?” and “Boy, that’s really silly and beneath a sitting governor.”

But then I read a quote from Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, who was talking about protesters, and LePage’s silly little posters started to look a lot darker.
