But then, I am in Portugal and politicians never resort to this kind of rethoric. Its sad.
If the leftwing on the US wants people to vote for them (lol dems are right wing by our standards), they should stop and think why resorting to the same tactics just makes them equal to right wingers. Hate rethoric only alienates.
Carry on.
I think you are right about the left needing to chill a bit in order to get elected. Not just the politicians but the base stirs this stuff up. I mean look at the people here who are defending a child rape tweet against the presidents son?
If you can't condemn that that you've really lost your way.
