On top of that of the three examples I brought up only Colbert's insult was meant for Trump in particular. The other two were directed at his kids. You can make the argument that Ivanka is at least involved in politicking but Barron is a 12 year old. There's never been this much vitriol directed at a President's family.
I also don't think it does much good for Democrats either. I think the blatant hate pushes away your more centrist and non political voters, as well as also serving as a reason to continue to fire up the Republican base. I think you see that reflected in his approval ratings going up. If it keeps up I don't think the mid terms are going to look as good as the Democrats are thinking they'll be and 2020 will be a nightmare for them.
Yeah, it's not like Republicans attacked Sasha and Malia--oh wait, they DID. In fact many of you Republicans called them the N word and said you hoped they got aids or one of those 'colored diseases'. So give me a break with this whole "Kids are off limits!" phony baloney. For that matter, let's not forget that you republicans attacked David Hogg too, and one of you even swatted him. A survivor of a school shooting. Republicans are classless as always.
Furthermore, the office of President deserves ZERO respect with Trump in office. Especially after the way Obama was treated--and he was a REAL President. One that actually thought about more than himself. When a pussy grabbing, twitter addicted, white supremacist, narcissist buffoon is President, the office has zero dignity and deserves zero respect. And neither does our country for that matter. We've lost our place as leaders of the free world. In that, Trump has succeeded.
Seek strength, not to be greater than my brother, but to fight my greatest enemy -- myself.
