Of course it wasn't. But Trump, with the help of his simpletons, has bought it down to the gutter.

You're right. It was terrible of President Trump to say that "they're gonna put you back in chains."
Or, how he forced the DNC to literally build a wall around their political convention. (I'm STILL laughing at the comic irony of that.)
Let's not forget when he said that “Scott Walker has given women the back of his hand. I know that is stark. That is direct. But that is reality. What Republican tea party extremists like Scott Walker are doing is they are grabbing us by the hair and pulling us back. It is not going to happen on our watch.”
Don't forget when he said, “Civilization as we know it would be in jeopardy if Republicans win the Senate.”

All of this obviously made you so mad, you're seeing Fuschia.
