This is the America fmr Pres Trump appears to want.

That is --- agree or face threats of, or actual, violence.

Because asking a candidate hard questions in a presidential campaign has always been a death penalty offense, right?

The Founders intended this-and-such social norms and folk ways stuff. Right Justice Roberts?

Trump supporters love to make threats but it seems like the only person they are actually bold enough to take a shot at is Trump.

This was as predictable as the sunrise; Dotard's brown shirts know only one thing, lashing out in outrage at perceived slights toward their shart-smelling cult leader, especially when those perceived slights come from those damned uppity N-Words. I'm curious how VPOTUS' threat numbers have skyrocketed in the past two weeks. When she beats the diaper dumper in November, the FBI and the SS are each going to have to increase staffing by a third just to deal with the threats. I predict there will be at least 100 prosecutions in the first year, and that's probably a lowball number. I'd volunteer my time just for the fun of putting these POS MAGAts in bracelets. Yeah, they're a little tight, they're new, they'll loosen up by the time you get to jail!

It would not surprise me if, between now and the election some MAGA-mouth shows up on the wrong doorstep or says the wrong thing to someone in public, and ends up getting shot in the face. The GOPers in the crowd will suddenly call for all sort of gun laws, to prohibit those on the Left from owning guns, resulting in a wave of snark and comedy routines unseen so far in this country. Of course, the person fielding that bullet will be given a hero's funeral, and it will come out about how he/she was a giant jerk blowhard who couldn't back up any of the political smack talked in their miserable little existence ...

The big question is where was Kamala so she had to take questions too? We know the answer is she cant, and was ordered to stay home. She is incapable of taking hard questions and giving comprehensible answers.

Out of all things politically motivated, this is the hardest one for me to understand because I just cannot fathom how people would willfully ignore their own hypocrisy.

We get articles all the time of people of all races, ages, etc. getting death threats, even for the most trivial things like chicken sandwiches. White coaches get death threats. White politicians get death threats. White athletes, executives, etc. ALL get death threats and they are in articles regularly. And, here's the kicker that's really going to cause the DR lib kids to respond with their typical name-calling and demonizing...the ones that are reported aren't just Rep. There are a lot of liberal ideologies attacked and the people doing the attacking get death threats. I know, it sucks but just because it sucks, it doesn't erase reality.

If we want to get rid of stupid people making death threats, 99% of which are people never meaning to do anything but technology allows them to stay mostly anonymous, then let's fight it at the source. Let's not allow it to be a partisan thing that both sides cling to when it meets their needs.

"Hillary was 100% accurate.. 'Basket of deplorables'"

So, speaking to what I said above, are Dems also deplorables when they make death threats? Or will your hypocrisy not allow you to ever go against your masters who have groomed you to not be objective for fear of being canceled?
