It’s an attitude that is apparently shared by many on the right and has actually lead to deaths and injuries. It’s an attitude the president has fueled with his rhetoric.


Your BS is nothing more than the same rhetoric being spewed from the DNC & MSM. Not an original argument nor narrative espoused over the past 4 years. That display right there is the most Un-American thing I’ve ever witnessed & I’ve seen flags burned, a crucifix sitting in urine, & aborted babies. That deserves violence of the most extreme form that is insurrection against your country...treason & sedition...they should all get a fair trial & then hung by their necks until dead on national TV.

How so? Elaborate further on it, please.


There's been little outcry from the right over the crimes committed, or allegedly committed, by Roger Stone, Mike Flynn, Rick Gates, Michael Cohen, Steve Bannon, and Paul Manafort. Except of course for the cries of "deep state" conspiracies. There has been absolutely no cry from the right on Trump using the White House for a political event last night. There has been no cry from the right on Trump carrying out government functions in the White House as part of the RNC convention.

generally we do come to common ground on most issues. yes.

both sides are doing their best to ramp up the exaggerated smear campaigns.

sort of.

the Left and the Democrats (not you) aren't helping the violence across the country. Because they won't stand against it or call it out. Hell, they don't even cover it for the most part, completely ignore it. That's costing innocent Americans their property, livelihood, and in some incidents, their lives. it's 'gas lighting' and it's now a common occurrence.

And there's little to no doubt that if this type of violence or chaos was stemming from their opponent, the Right, it would be covered 24/7 and a be pointed to as a direct reflection of all who vote center of Right.

this is not a healthy precedent. even if roles were reversed, we should feel gross about it and call it out.

I'll ask again


Serious question:

Do you see the Democrats denouncing these people? Because I see the democrat Vice President nominee felling the demonstrators to “keep it up”


So it seems they do in fact support this as a whole

I said elaborate on it. I didn't say give me the CNN crawler line version of it. And by the way, I see you failed to mention that Obama used a eulogy to give a DNC speech on national tv. So while you're busy condemning the White House stunt, let that one sink in.

This is what y'all and conservative media are doing though. It would happen the other way too because everyone hates the other side and the media is a joke.

I think we are just continuously seeing the downside of 2 parties and it's only getting worse. National politics is no longer "I believe in" it's "well they believe in this, gross, we don't though."

What's to elaborate on? The right paints themselves as the law & order party, yet ignores the number of Trump associates that have been indicted and/or convicted. They remain silent when Trump pardons or commutes the sentences of his political allies. They have remained silent as he's used to White House for his political campaign. It's just a continuation of Nixon's law & order for thee, but not for me BS.

The one at John Lewis's funeral? Obama wasn't in office for that, so what was illegal about it?

There’s been little outcry from the left about the crimes committed (or allegedly committed) by Strzok, Comey, Clinton, etc.

What’s your point?

Have any of them been indicted or convicted of any crimes? I will join in on the criticism if any of them are even indicted for anything and Democrats ignore and/or gloss over it.

And just to put it out there, I do think it was shameful the DNC had Bill Clinton as part of their convention.

A large portion of these “peaceful protests” turn into riots, and are supported widely by public figures saying stuff like “I understand the rioters and looters because no one listens and they want to be heard”

that and it's become more about 'they are this and that', instead of 'here's my plan for the next 4 years'. that's why i hope we do see debates, because at some point we'll get past the name calling and hopefully the moderators will ask them about their policies, decision records, and suggested changes.

No.

Are you pretending political pandering is only a tactic of the left?

The Dems laid out their entire election strategy in giant neon signs at the DNC last week: "Are you tired of trump? Samsies, but guess what? We are not trump so vote for us."

Everything trump does or doesn't do, the Dems will have an equal and opposite reaction. It's election year theater.

The white house is his personal residence. It is the same thing as if he held the ceremony in Trump tower.

What percentage of the peaceful protests turn into riots, would you say? Do you think it may seem that most of them turn violent because those are the ones that get media attention? There have been protests at least once a week here in the Birmingham area since May, and only one night was there any violence and widespread property destruction. There's been little news coverage of the peaceful ones since May.
