I’m not a trump supporter but aren’t the ppl who riot and commit violent crimes against trump supporters …hypocrites I dunno what word fits them. You don’t see trump supporters violently protesting against Hilary supporters. It’s a little ridiculous and says a lot about democrats that they would become so violent. Immature kids if you ask me. We have a democracy where whoever wins the electoral college wins…there shouldn’t be violence to take a stand against a candidate…its third world type stuff. Really sad what this countries coming to.
Don’t like trump? Be like me and don’t vote for him…don’t throw rocks and set on fire cars if his supporters…
trump supporter’s were punching, dragging, and kicking protesters from the start. I’ve been following his campaign since he announced his intent to run for president and the numbers are overwhelmingly “trump supporters beat protesters who are peacefully marching for their civil rights” Looks like people were sick of getting beat up when all they wanted to do was protest peacefully. Now, it appears there’s no peace.
It’s just now that the protesters have gotten up to defend themselves from physical assault and ongoing psychological warfare (i.e. having the Donald encourage acts of violence against protesters, saying that sucker punching them is good, allowing ethnic slurs (part of psychological warfare) and other crimes bordering on hate crimes to occur).
See the article below for a handy timeline with audio and video of various assaults against peaceful protesters by mobs of Trump supporters. Only one has been charged (compared to all of these non-peaceful trump protesters, all of whom are being charged).
Here’s a timeline of trump supporter’s attacks on ethnic minorities and political dissidents,dated back in march, before the trump protesters took up arms (I mean eggs, they took up eggs):
Trump also arranged to pay for one of the pro-trump physical attacker’s legal fees to keep him from being formally prosecuted as per the law of the United States, thus using his money to circumvent justice.
I’m politically active, so you can call me biased, as in I believe that everybody should obey the constitution, regardless of how rich you are. If someone violates the constitution or incites hate crimes or bribes the system to keep a violent criminal out of jail, I think that makes them a traitor to the constitution.
I agree with both of your posts. No one should resort to physical violence, that goes for both the anti-Trump protesters and the Trump supporters.
And just for the record, I think Trump is an a$$hole and I would never vote for him, not even if he was the last a$$hole on earth. The donut emoji has been re-purposed—Hah!
Whoever is doing it. Republicans or democrats (both?)…(I’m glad I’m not either one)…are acting like spoiled children. “OH WAHHHHH THE ELECTION IS NOT GOING THE WAY I LIKE SO I’M GONNA BEAT UP THE OTHER CANDIDATES SUPPORTERS”…it’s just a bunch of spoiled childish behavior. It’s what a 3 year old do when they don’t get their way if they could. It’s sad we have such immaturity going on in our country…
I want move…this is a joke…Hilary is a demon and trump is a douche…who ever wins…no one wins…i cant remember what country but they protested non violently and forced a change in their gov…
Totally agreed and you made a great point. Violence has no justification. If you try to justify it you are only relativizing the act itself and further empowering it.
Sarad , I cant think of many democracies that were not founded as a result of violence. The truth is that Donald Trump espouses violence himself , so whats good for the goose…
The reason people get so emotional against Trump is because they fear that he will deport their family. He has said he plans to deport the 11 million illegal immigrants from the USA if he is elected. How would you feel if you had to fear that your family and friends would be deported to a 3rd world country with one of the highest murder rates in the world? Unfortunately the stones should be thrown at Trump and not his supporters, since they’re simply ignorant fools being used by a demagogue.
Left-wing and right-wing economists stand in unison in decrying his proposed economic policies.
Deporting 11 million Mexicans from the USA that are the primary people farmers hire to help pick fruits and vegetables on their farms will cause the price of food produced in the USA to significantly increase.
His tax proposals would cost the United States an estimated $12 trillion over the next decade, significantly adding the to deficit.
He has stated that he plans on defaulting on America’s debt. Even if he enacts none of his other disastrous economic policies, this will be enough to spook investors and cause a recession.
He states that he’ll levy tariffs on two of USA’s top economic trading partners China and Mexico which will trigger a global depression if actually enacted. China, which will likely have a property bubble burst within the next two or three years even if Trump isn’t elected, will have much less incentive to cooperate peacefully with the United States in the Pacific. As tensions rise between China and the USA, there’s a real possibility of a minor conflict spiraling out of control and becoming a full blown war. A nuclear conflict between USA and China would spell the end of modern civilization and a new dark age would emerge. Millions of people would die from the resulting nuclear winter caused by the conflict due to the significant drop in global temperature and lower food harvests.
This is not even mentioning the fact that he’s a racist, sexist, xenophobic bully, who has openly made fun of people with disabilities and shown disdain for mentally ill people.
If Trump is elected it will be a disaster for the USA and the world.
I agree with your post except for the above statement. Physical violence is never OK in my book.
Also, it would be more effective (not to mention entertaining) to fight Trump’s preposterous ideas and stupid one-liners with intelligent counter-arguments and watch Trump self-destruct. I think the future presidential debates will be very telling.
I agree with what you said Bipolar Bear. Actually, Canada is by far the U.S.'s biggest trading partner. Half of U.S. oil imports come from Canada. Trump has stated that he will go to war and takeover Canada as he wants to control Canada’s rich oil reserves and take control of our borders. This man wants to ban Muslims from entering the U.S. because he believes they are violent and killers which 99% of them are not. I have heard “Christians” like him say The Quran says that Muslims will rise up and eventually take over the Earth. Well, I’ve got news for Trump: The Bible says Christians will rule the world and all non-believers will be destroyed. Does that mean Christians are all terrorists and want to kill? No, just as the vast majority of Muslims are not going to be terrorists, either. ISIS is a radical terrorist organization who are the same as the radical terrorist Christian organization THE KU KLUX KLAN. But both of them are just as bad. Trump is very close to being a fascist like Hitler. It’s the MUSLIMS who are the problem he says, just like Hitler who said it’s the JEWS who are the problem. I don’t believe in violence either but Trump is
frightening good people.
and I would never vote for him, not even if he was the last a$$hole on earth. The donut emoji
