Trump just endorsed that, 'I'm starting to agree'Lets see, the Democrats are allowed to "hit" Trump for this and that or for whatever they want but Trump is chastised for saying he's going to "hit" them back. Are you into child's play? Do you think child's play is going to resolve issues? Do you really want to do liberal child play with an old school adult? I'll do liberal child's play if you want just for shits and giggles and to see how many emotional twits it drums up. Hell, I played that game all through the Bush years. I played it with Kiff. Where's Kiff? I played it so well that your numbers fell greatly and older posters began dropping out. I "hit" hard and I "hit" where it has the greatest impact and where it really hurts. I expect more from a so-called intelligent adult like yourself. I know who the real bully beaters are and who they tend to support. I also know the name of candidate who represents them. Did you go to a similar high school as me? A larger suburban high school with several social groups? If you did, did you pay much attention to what actually made it work?
This is par for the course with his use of language that pushes the spiral of violence. He doesn't say he wants to rebut what the Democratic speakers are saying, he says he wants to be physically violent with them. He doesn't say he wants to defeat his opponent in an election, he says he wants to imprison opposing politicians.
Now, I'm not quite one to say Trump is Hitler's long lost clone. Trump does show a persistent liking for Agricultural Age tyrannic government, with his endorsement of great leaders like Saddam Hussain. He might be as close to a Cynic Hero restoree politicians as we are apt to find. Still, not all tyrants or wannabe tyrants are equally bad. At this point Trump is reality connected enough to state his mind but not to try to act on it. He hasn't actually punched anybody. He didn't find any Republican Philadelphia cops and send them into the convention to arrest Hillary.
But I wouldn't want to tempt him by granting him the power to actually do what he says he wants to do.
There's a huge gap between calling your opponent unfit for office (see the 1st Amendment) and 'hitting' back that you will put your opponent in jail once you come to power. We are NOT a banana republic.
The fact that you can't grasp that difference clearly indicates that you are a sheeple wanting to be ruled by Comrade Trump on the behalf of Tsar Putin. It is people like you that cause democracies to die.
