Because they feel they can say anything they want about him and get away with it. Then they'll blast Trump for being "hateful ".

Nah Trumps blatant normalization of anti immigrant sediment and angry scare mongering caused this 

Quote:It's the same kind kind of stuff thrown at Trump regularly.
No it's not even close

Nah he criticized because he's a bigoted hate filled prick

I was just going by the maniac I started the tread about.
The Dayton maniac.
Appologies to the maniacs for the mixup.

Just watched a clip on tv of a Democrat official calling for people to show up at Mc Connell's house with torches and pitchforks.

Okay, where's the evidence that he actually HAD an ideological motivation for this? Where's the manifesto? And where's the blatant dehumanising from the Democrats which helps inure the Democratic base to violence? Where is the dogwhistling to Antifa groups from Democratic politicians?

Yup as I said nothing like Trumps words . As how many pitchfork wielding mobs do you think this nobody will be able to inspire ?As opposed to Trumps anti immigrant fear mongering leading to immigrants being targeted for violent attacks ?

I haven't investigated that. I just read about this kind of stuff in the news regularly. I don't know what his motivation is, but he was inciting violence.

Considering the protests have for the most part been non violent his words didn't inspire shit .But were to see it as pure coincidence in an age were the president of the united states is trash talking immigrants their targeted for a violent attack .

And as I said how many violent mobs do you think it could inspire ? Were was the dehumanization of a person or group ?
