Wait, they attacked an opposing candidate!?? gasps
During an election cycle!???? faints
You guys are utterly hilarious. A collective persecution complex at a scale heretofore unknown in human history![]()
True in a sense, Fox News were the ones who really kicked it off (coz they couldn't handle a black dude being elected).
Catch the video I posted last page? Its only 5 mins long but fairs fair, as I'm much better at this than Stokey I'd be happy to point you to the most pertinent examples.
Oh? Are they still off now? One would assume so.The gloves were off by then.
I can tell lolHey i'm very classy.
Oh? Are they still off now? One would assume so.
Seems like you are right Stokey no change forthcoming, at least from Bostonian & co![]()
Champagne irony. You apparently have no idea how that primary shook out.They were attacking him before he was even the Republican nominee.
I swear you're a johnny come lately.
You don't seem to know or remember anything that happened more than 6 months ago.
Mocking!?? Another heinous and unprecedented stain on the civility of politics, how ever did the poor man recoverMSM outside of Fox were mocking Trump when he first put his hand up as a candidate.
There's that short memory of yours again.
You appear to have lost the thread of our discussion, mate. Deliberately, I suspect.My position hasn't changed.
Would either vote Libertarian or not at all for this election.
We know you'll simp for the Democrats.
So you're right.
No change forthcoming.
I barely need to - like I said, you're making most of them for me (when you're not pretending to lose the thread of the convo to avoid looking even sillier than you already do, of courseBubble Boy thinks he's making points![]()
You should run a goal post moving company
Here's Donnie boy calling Nancy a "crazed lunatic" and joking about the attack on her husband soon after it happened;
Just point me to any Democrat leadership taking similar shots about Scalise in the wake of that attack? I'll wait.
More class and lowering of the rhetoric here Stokey! A great initiative from MAGA nationNancy Pelosi’s husband’s lover

They started attacking Trump before a vote was even cast.
Oh right, like when you thought a presidential candidate being attacked and criticised was oh so unfair and unprecedented. My bad, clearly a monumental grasp of history you've got there knackersI haven't lost what's going on. You just keep getting exposed for not knowing jack shit about things that happened more than a few months ago.
Before a vote was even cast Trump was openly stating he would 'Lock her up' with reference to Clinton, with his followers gleefully cheering along.
Don't sit there and act like Trump is not some kind of (openly and unashamedly) intentionally divisive figure.
He does it often, and deliberately, and has done since he started running for office. He does it along with frequent (intentional) dog whistles to white nationalist groups, Qanon, conspiracists and so forth.
Again, I'm actually pleased he hasn't done it with regards to the shooting. It's out of character for him, and gives me at least some hope he may actually have finally learnt why doing it is a bad idea for the Republic.

And no, like I said you just pretended to lose the thread once you realised that you'd kinda hung yourself on the whole lowering of the rhetoric pretense. Gloves are off mate, you words not mine ¯\(ツ)/¯
Did I say he wasn't?
Or did you ignore the part where I pointed out that the Democrats knew Trump far better than the Republicans did and they knew very well what kind of reaction they would get when pushing his buttons.
You can find my posts where I've made it clear that all the Democrats and their minions in the media had to do to see the back of him was to play the long calm game and let him fail without their garbage tactics.
They chose the wrong strategy and they look like they will lose to again to a guy who should be unelectable but will be President once again.
How ****ing moronic are the Democrats
I was asking you to lead the way.Don't play the ball mate whatever you do
Well we'll need some specifics - what were the particular insults in 2016 that you felt were too far?No, I thought this was the first time where both parties really went to the gutter in how they operated.
Are you saying previous elections candidates were throwing insults at each other and each others voting base in the manner they did?
Agreed, as has been the case in all 3 elections he's contested.The only reason Trump had anything to throw at the Democrats was because they put up a trash corrupt candidate.
The only reason Trump had a chance was because they put up a trash corrupt candidate.
I know. Unsure why you'd ask me and not Lebbo, Flowers etc, I'm not the one still throwing round divisive/extreme rhetoric.I was asking you to lead the way.
This makes sense. It's all they know, and it's all they ever hear. Trump is Hitler, put Trump in a bullseyes, the end of democracy etc etc. They become brainwashed and think they are doing the world a favour. It's like they are being radicalised online.
Education could work if they were open for change. But, even after the recent events they have just doubled down on the rhetoric. I don't blame all of them as online radicalisation is real and the grifters will keep sucking them into their echo chambers.

Some comment acknowledging the obvious inanity, considering Trump and the GOP's form, of laying the blame for this escalated rhetoric on teh left as you did in your last few posts would have also been good.
Literally every one of your posts is 'the Democrats are shit'.
Even now, in response to me saying 'I've seen good things from both sides since the shooting, including Trump'.
Do you realize you just parrot partisan crap over and over?
Literally every one of your posts is 'the Democrats are shit'.
I hate the Democrats.
