The way the left is self destructing.........

Yeah, no doubt. Even reasonable people who don't like Trump can't support this garbage show that the left has been putting on since the election.

This is the left. This is it. There is no substance any longer.

And it is glorious.

and straw men . . . lots of wicker effigies in their discourse

When you set stuff on fire, destroy buildings, and harass innocent people to the point that LEO can't get involved for hours it'll drive any rational thinking person away.

They do put me in a weird position, in that I really don't want to defend Trump, but I find myself constantly defending him against my liberal friends because their arguments are all based on emotions and hyperbole.

It's so weird.

I spend my IRL time defending Trump, and I spend my time on here criticizing him

Jesus. This is my exact same predicament. Uncanny.

Yes, you certainly are a dichotomy.

Awesome read. They're eating their own.

Cal was shameful last night, but have there really been "daily violent protests"?

not daily. I'd say it happens every few days though. January 20th was violent. Last night was violent. There may have been other violent riots i haven't known about. If not, let's call them bi-weekly.

Big Scrub, i know we disagree on nearly everything, but you do see what the OP is saying, correct? You do realize the course that these nutjobs are taking the Democrat party, right? These animals are not distinguishable, anymore, from the non-violent left, because as someone else pointed out, the end game is similar. You have batshit crazy Ashley Judd, and vile Madonna say the strange things they were saying, have it preceded and followed by violent riots chanting the same exact thing, and then you couple that with Democrat politicians "standing up" for these people.

America is judging, and making their mind up about the left. I've stated since the election. The exact same reasons that Trump won, are continuing today. The childish temper tantrums, and riots. The absolutely inane psycho-babble and "everyone i don't like is literally hitler", etc... This is the modern left. When will someone from your side speak loudly enough to talk over these idiots? To take control of the Dem party instead of follow the lunacy that is spread daily?

ETA: Nevermind, just saw your post above me. Your the same idiots i'm talking about. You'll never win again.

Think how bad it was when LEO WAS involved!

Yeah, but those uppity negros were asking for it.

Just look at that guy assaulting that cop's sweet puppy!

Nah. The protesting to date has been remarkable precisely because such huge numbers have turned out peacefully. The assholes from Cal need to be singled out precisely because they are the outliers. And to be clear - I hope Trump goes down the path of threatening the university's federal funding.

Sort of. I think it's very possible that all of this protesting will just exhaust the average American, thus diminishing the marginal utility of the next protest. However, these people are really only taking their cues from the Tea Pary protests - which arguably led more or less directly to a vast increase in political power (and ultimately the Trump presidency).
