Chaos and Insanity

I turned away for two seconds and it seems like the political field became even more chaotic than before. Carson endorsed Trump, somebody got beaten bloody at the St. Louis Trump rally, there is a hullabaloo over Obama not visiting yet another funeral of an insignificant corpse, somebody grabbed Trump’s leg at the Chicago rally and he freaked – have a missed any more insanity?

À propos Trump’s rallies, it looks like these protesters are either dumbass idiots or stooges manipulated into energizing the political Right and helping it win the general election. Or both.

The people who are likely to go “oh look these poor victimized Trump supporters and Trump” are unlikely to have voted for either of the current Democratic candidates or Obama anyways.
Any sane person who’s been paying attention knows who is inciting violence and who is acting violently.
Trump has already been energizing the political Right and scaring the sane people so I’m not sure what your objection is.

    Clinton too afraid to piss anyone off, even diehard racists who’d never ever vote for her anyway.

      And by diehard racists I mean the majority of Trump supporters.

      After Bernie glorified the most racist regime in the hemisphere, picking on this statement by Hillary is a bit bizarre.
      
      In Cuba, a tiny white minority is keeping a black majority in infrahuman conditions, ensuring a strict racial segregation by means of aggressive policing and living in luxury while the population starves and prostitutes itself for food and medication.

        When Sanders said that he wrote off Florida. HRC is projected to win that state by double digits. As is Trump.

        He should be written off by everybody after what he said. But it’s a lie that black lives matter. They don’t. Only American lives have a chance of mattering. Everybody else can screw themselves.

    This very pointed statement is empty, cheap rhetoric. Bernie’s comments in Cuba cause me to experience a wave of violent rage. But I didn’t go to his rally to grab him by the legs. And if I do, it will be my fault and not his.

  I object to people going to political rallies and grabbing candidates by the legs, irrespective of who those candidates are.

    Of course that’s not right. It plays right into “scary leftist protestors” and was dumb. However I’m finding it difficult to feel sorry for a guy who talks tough and literally eggs on people to fight while he’s surrounded by private security and Secret Service. There’s a saying, “Don’t write checks with your mouth that your body can’t cash.” Also relevant, “Don’t start none, won’t be none.”

      That’s exactly my point.

      I’m sorry not for Trump but for all of us whose risk of seeing a Republican in the White House increased significantly today. Precisely for the reason you mentioned above.

That old beastressentiment, rears its ugly head again.

I have finished my early voting. The poll workers said today was very busy and they anticipate more people coming out tomorrow.

Let’s see. Did Trump supporters disrupt a Bernie rallly?

No, they didn’t.

Did Trump supporters disrupt a Hillary fundraiser?

No, they didn’t.

Who disrupted both a Trump event and Bernie / Hillary events? Were they Republicans by any chance?

No, they weren’t.

Were they progressives?

Yes, they were.

So who is violent? In actions, not in words?

A rally that would have been attended by thousands and streamed by thousands more who already support Donald Trump was now seen by millions of people who may not be political ideologues and are currently undecided voters. They just got a taste of what a Bernie Sanders and perhaps Hillary Clinton presidency would look like. And they don’t like it. Suppression of free speech. Mob rule. Caving to the demands of a radical minority due to intimidation and the fear of the threat of violence.

Yeah, the cretins who are violently disrupting the Trump events (with explicit encouragement from the far-left “MoveOn.Org” political advocacy group that is strongly supporting Sanders) are obviously far too stupid to realize how much they’re helping Trump’s cause!

This afternoon Trump gave a speech shown in its entirety on MSNBC (but not Fox or CNN) in which, thanks to the protesters, he held his audience spellbound without having to say a SINGLE word remotely related to U.S. domestic or foreign policy. All Trump did was rant for an hour about how the disrupters were trying to violate the rights of his supporters to hear him speak, but because of his (Trump’s) personality, he isn’t going to stand for that kind of undemocratic violence, and is now going to push his “MAKE AMERICA STRONG AGAIN” agenda harder and more forcefully than ever! That’s ALL he talked about the whole hour, and his supporters loved the message!

Over the past few weeks, Trump was starting to feel the need to appear more “Presidential,” and at least pretend to address the relevant political issues with some specificity. But now, if the “MoveOn.Org” idiots keep throwing him red meat that he can blame on the rabid left, they’ll hand him a perfect excuse to keep ranting “They can’t stop us!” nonsense all the way through the primary season to the convention in July.

It isn’t enough for Sanders to respond by calling Trump a “pathological liar.” Sanders has no direct control over how the “MoveOn.Org” people act, but since they support him and claim to be acting in his name, he needs to tell them specifically to back off and stop hurting his chances as the election moves along.

  Yes, absolutely. All that this idiocy is doing is helping Trump. I’ve never seen people try harder to lose an election they had in the bag than the Democrats are doing in this election cycle. There is no mistake they haven’t made many times over. Idiots.

What’s weird is the way that the interests of the Repub establishment and the SJW activist crowd are converging in the case of Trump, they both want him out by any means necessary. I’m sensing a desire for a proscription type scenario….
