Call them what they are, bullies.

All of them Trump, Ryan all the rest of them, they are bullies. Then look at the trolls online, on every single newspaper and news outlet in the country. They use bully tactics to shut us down. We need to grow a thicker skin. Don't engage them, kill them with intelligent conversation, they hate that because they don't know what the words mean.

I was bullied last week on the News OK site. I went after them with intelligent argument and voila out came the "intellectual elitist" comment. We can't be nice any longer, don't let them take control of the national discourse. They are MINORITY, not a majority. Call them on it!
