To me, it appears the fmr Pres Trump seems to be more inclined to encourage political violence than trying to tamp it down.
Is that a feature of a presidential candidate nowadays?

It is for Republicans.

I want to hear about the time Maxine Waters incited you to riot.

Please give examples of how either of them, e.g., incited anyone to overthrow the results of a valid election.
Links would be helpful.
thx.

Not necessarily more, but certainly they will be Babbitted before they get in the building as they should have been the last time.
Not that the game will be the same.

White Reich Traitors... We used to shoot Nazi's in the head.
We should get back to those days.
They're just wasting oxygen meant for kinder gentler peoples.

X is loaded with authoritarian rhetoric from the right.
From thinly veiled calls for violence to explicit calls for jailing "democrats" for "we'll find something."

Well, when we've had 4 years of far-left, liberal communists going off the deep-end in their rhetoric, what did you think was going to happen? The more extreme one side gets, the more extreme the other side gets. This has happened for the 5 decades I've been alive so why would that change now? Especially when both sides are doing everything they can to point fingers when they themselves are doing the exact same thing.

Rhetoric. Just words.
When you were in Kindergarten, you were supposed to learn
"Stick and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me!"

what liberal communists 'deep-end rhetoric' where?
cite a specific example.
What have you got against a party that defends the Middle Class?
Why do you vote for a party that has cut taxes for millionaires and billionaires 5 times since the 1980's?
Do you still believe in Trickle Down Economics?
How dumb are you?
And most importantly, who touched you in a 'no, no spot' when you were a kid to make you into the angry little white man in a white robe and hood that you are today?
Was it Uncle Jeb? Did Uncle Jeb do it? That Bastard!
