Yeah, I was trying to make the argument with some Bernie disciples that while Trump has some poor rhetoric, Bernie's worshipers are actually out there committing crimes (or trying to)

Guy at Trump rally crosses the line of taste yet again.
I find it interesting that the MSM is really finding the crazies at Trump's rallies and putting them on the front page.
Remember during the last elections cycles when the opposition was planting people at rallies who were nuts and having them seek out the MSM? Wonder how much of that is going on here?
And no, I'm not suggesting these folks are all plants or even this moron, but I'm betting they're in use.

Supresson of free speech is OK as long as you only do it to Republicans.

Calling him a Republican is more than a substantial portion of that party is willing to do.

People in chicken suits used to follow President Bush I to events and taunt him. It's a long and rich democratic tradition that must be respected.

Anonymous will "dismantle Trump's campaign" on April 1st.
So now Anonymous will be attempting to alter elections. Awesome.
How does them imposing their belief system on a nation full of people make them better than Trump? Or hell, ISIS?

Just another PAC as far as I'm concerned, with different currency.

Coercion instead of bribes, basically. At least Anon is being honest about it.
Still bad.

Basically, yes.
Although, actually taking action rather than a commercial campaign does separate them.

Hahahaha.
To put a fine point on it: Economist sees a Trump election as an equivalent global risk to terrorism destabilizing the world economy.
...
It's important to remember, though, the lens through which the magazine is looking at this. Trump's a risk not because of the violence that has swirled around his rallies or because of his rapidly evolving policy positions — at least not primarily. He's a risk because he hates free trade.

Asshole density readings will be off the charts.
“Here I’m gonna be kinda wearing two hats — in charge of the security there in the town and also participating, I would imagine, with Trump in the rally, so it makes it interesting,” Arpaio said in an interview with POLITICO, adding that it “is going to be a lot of fun taking care of business there.”
...
Arpaio has long been a controversial figure both in Arizona and nationally. The sheriff and his deputies were found to have violated the constitutional rights of Latinos in 2013, and in 2015 the federal ruling was mostly upheld. And he’s been sued multiple times. Since he took office in 1993, he’s cost taxpayers $142 million in legal expenses, settlements and court awards, according to The Arizona Republic.
Yet, the man who calls himself “America’s toughest sheriff” has been reelected six times, and he’s going for number seven.
This should go smoothly.

Muhammad Ali had more humility even back in his day than Donnie Dickbag has now.
Trump has for weeks said he would release the names of foreign policy advisers but has until now repeatedly missed his own deadlines.
Asked last week in an interview on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" about his advisers, Trump first pointed to himself: "I'm speaking with myself, number one, because I have a very good brain."
He has no other choice but to pick Kanye for his VP running mate. Everybody else has an ego that's lightyears too small in radius.

I expect Trump will name a female for his VP. My current best guess would be Ann Coulter.

Oh, you know who's female, popular, and conservative?
Hillary Clinton.

All I'm saying is give Sarah Palin a second chance. I'm sure the media will be a lot more fair this time around.

Sarah makes Ann look like Marilyn Vos Savant. I can't entirely blame the media for her being a dumb-ass and shitty speaker.

Who was more qualified for the job than the community organizer, but they claimed to opposite, loudly and frequently.
