EXACTLY. And yet my social media is rife with people APPLAUDING the protestors, knowing good and well that if the shoe were on the other foot, they would be screaming bloody murder. I really am concerned that this will escalate and that Trump himself will be at risk, along with his family. And the media and those that worship it will feel no remorse whatsoever, feeling morally justified in their callousness.

Read both pieces -- a bit of the material is repetitive -- and make up your mind. I thought Fox News, in its live coverage, had identified the protesters as from MoveOn, but I'm not sure as I wasn't paying close attention. I don't know if the on-scene reporters identified any other groups. This nonsense reminds me of the 1968 Democratic convention disturbances. It was a very bad time. For those of you too young to remember, or weren't born yet, Wikipedia has a reasonable article on the those events.
These people have nothing better to do? Do they not realize they are giving Trump more publicity, exactly what he wants? Honestly Trumps not that bad, he would probably make a better president then a few of your countries previously choices. All these clowns lie to get elected, Trump's just figured out what lies a lot of American's want to hear. Do any politicians keep their promises after they get elected? Of course they don't, so why get mad at one set of lies and not another?
I think there is blame to go around on both sides. From the left, the people are clearly looking to start trouble and cause chaos and division. On the right, the Trump supporters are clearly looking for fights, and are agitating as well. So, really there are no innocent parties. Ultimately, you have to put the blame on Donald Trump. He's set a very poor example and indeed seems to be encouraging violence at his rallies.
Pardon me for this comment I find Donald Trump very popular with the Americans and his detractors are very active.I agree that if Trump becomes president, the nation will be somehow divided. However, on the other hand, the nation will heal after a time and everything will be forgotten. That was the trend when Obama ran for reelection 4 years ago. His haters were rabid with their emails scarring the image of Obama. But again he won and retained his seat in the White House. The nation was not divided, right?
I was working in the US during the last election, and although I found the US political system to be very dynamic, decisive and exciting, I don't recall it being quite as decisive as this election seems to be. Some of the scenes from the Chicago rally were almost surreal after it was cancelled. My sister married an American and they live in St Louis, she told me recently that there was almost a riot in the streets recently at a rally. Its kind of disturbing to see such things from the US, the champion of democracy, why have opinions over there become so polarized recently ?
it is an honest question, but if you could have stopped hitler from getting into power, wouldn´t that have been the best solution. You can´t call an entire country ´rapists´.. you cannot ban a religion from entering your country, and you can´t go around saying you want to punch people, or telling your cult that if they punch someone, he will pay the legal bills. He brought this on himself. He could have just as easily ran a normal candidacy based on being anti-trade deals and strong on immigration. He could have talked about the wall etc.. He actually could have had a very strong platform that would have appealed to many people. But what hs is doing is almost a hate-crime at this point, and this is someone running for president.
I think the actions of Trump has sparked some old fires. The race problem has always been around. However, because of MR Trumps utterances, racial tension issue has somewhat been placed in the forefront again and this has been evident with the number of racial confrontations dogging some of his campaigns.
I'm more convinced than ever that the Trump campaign disturbances and unrest can be traced back to George Soros. I wouldn't be surprised if many participants have no idea who is pulling collective their puppet strings. However the convoluted path of monies makes its way through the national, regional and local organizations and groups (whatever one wants to call them), the buck stops with Soros. That includes those identified by the Daily Caller (above). The recent events in Ferguson and down the road at the University of Missouri (Columbia), and the continuing c--p of MoveOn.Org are recent examples of Soros funding. Soros' Open Society Foundations fronts Black Lives Matters (one just needs to look at the pictures on the home page, much less wade through the written blather), and we all know how that group behaves. And I believe all of Soros' "social empire" is influenced by the Alinsky-Cloward-Piven progressive liberal school of thinking. Unfortunately all of this "social" engineering is backed by so much money that it makes it difficult to knock down.
The irony is simply off the charts for of those that snivel about Trump being a crypto-fascist, yet see nothing wrong with his opposition using the tactics of threats and intimidation which the Blackshirts and the Sturmabteilung employed. It is at best historical ignorance and at worst a pretty brazen example of intellectual dishonesty. In a free society, we are to have a free marketplace of ideas. The good and bad ones will be properly vetted in due time.
