Because that is the system that put Trump into office.  And I think a big reason for that happening, including the hidden surge of voters not seen in pre election polls, is the disrespect of that system aka the people that voted for Trump.  If you think continuing down that same path is going to work well come mid terms and 2020 I would strongly urge you to reconsider.

And again I'll say, the comments that came from Samantha Bee and Peter Fonda were not directed at Trump, the office, or "the system."  They were directed at his children.  Where in the past has it been remotely appropriate for any previous president's family to receive that kind of rampant hatred with no consequences?

Fox News Attacks Obama's Daughters

How about Ann Coulter encouraging people to go after Obama's kids


I could go on with how many awful things were said about Bill Clinton's daughter during her dads trial .

-The NRA ad is bad because it involves Obama's daughters, but it is not a direct attack on them. They are used for cheap political points which I don't like either, but the NRA didn't call them cunts.

-Fox News didn't attack Obama's daughters, there was a comment section in one of their articles that got way out of control. Fox News shut down the comment section in response. The things a lot of the people said were super fucked up, but we're talking anonymous internet trolls, not established media personalities like I chose as examples. If we're going to bring this discussion down to what random people are saying on the internet we may as well nuke the conversation.

-Interestingly enough I looked into the Ann Coulter thing, and while she brings up going after Obama's daughters it's a hyperbolic response which she clarifies at the end of her statement. It also should be noted that she doesn't even directly attack the children, she casually mentions it as a response and then dismisses it immediately afterwards.
Quote:Ann Coulter: No, that's right. And they (liberals) do go after the children. I mean, I just say going after the children, generally, to be off limits. It has not been off limits for Republicans. Though, conservatives have take the Obama children off limits, so, you know, maybe it's time to start imitating liberals in another way and go after the Obama children.

But, I think it's just more of going after the family members and the children, and by the way that has been done grotesquely and viciously over the years, by the left. Including, frequently outing gay children of right-wingers. You know, if you get involved in political dialogue you're not supposed to be putting your family at risk. You are the one who is out there making the arguments, take the shots at the public figure. Don't start attacking their children.

I'm seriously asking though, who else is calling the president's daughter a cunt and saying she should fuck her father? Or suggesting that a 12 year old child of the president should get raped to teach the president a lesson? This is a whole new level of hatred. Can you find me anything to this level where the person making the statement wasn't fired or faced harsh consequences?
