I completely agree. But I would like to add one thing: we also have to be careful not to get Trump-baited.
 
One woman chained her neck to the door of a van in order to block traffic. Cops had to cut off the chain and then arrest her.
 
I am just glad America is great again. I probably speak for us all there…

No it’s not his die-hard fans. It’s those sitting on the fence who will see through outrageous false accusations and labeling of trump that he is not the one to fear.

If it’s only die-hard fans, his numbers would stay the same instead of growing.

So I actually take delight in people denigrating trump and his followers. It helps our cause. It helps those undecided to see how vicious the enemy of trump is. 🙂

Trump is the strongest when he is attacked most viciously. That has been the theme of his campaign.

And that is precisely why he lacks the temperament to be president. We don’t need a commander-in-chief with the defensive instincts of a cornered animal. Too much is at stake.

You keep twisting what I said to fit some narrative. He is not controlling what’s happening out there. When voters see trump being viciously attacked, they want to support him. If you want to paint that as trump being defensive like a cornered animal, I have nothing to say to you.

St. Paul used to say, when I am weak I am strong. When trump is attacked from all fronts, the voters hold him up. Don’t blame trump when people want to support him.

How does Megyn Kelly figure into this narrative? She is viciously attacking him, correct? Weakening him?
 
One American News, OAN, Trump live from Fountain Hills Arizona; though, I have heard a lot of this. OAN is 208 on Prism and OAN is not widely available. I’ve heard a lot about it. On Fox too and wherever else.

I’m pretty certain that when Obama was senator he rejected the “born alive act”, which in effect was referring to infanticide (a botched abortion in which a baby was born alive despite attempts on its life).

He is considered by Planned Parenthood as being the MOST pro-choice president who ever occupied the White House.

Planned Parenthood thinks all democrats are pro-choice and they don’t place Obama over anyone else, especially where Obama made an executive order when the ACA was passed, not to allow any funds to go for abortions.

The Illinois Born Alive Act was not only flawed in its language, but there were already laws in place prohibiting a doctor for not performing life saving procedures on a baby born alive.

The problem with the law, which all the medical groups opposed was, should a mother deliver a premature baby which dies during child birth, but it moves from a nerve twitch, and she thinks its alive, she could sue the doctor and he would be criminally charged until he could prove to a government board, that the infant was indeed dead at birth.

But this thread isn’t about Obama, he isn’t running for president.

Lets get back to Trump, who is running.

The Democrats like it, too, since they’d rather run against Trump.

True. He has consistently been the most unpopular candidate with independents and democrats. Without them, a national election is a lost cause.

I have nothing against Ted Cruz, I just don’t understand why so many are willing to vilify Trump with so little evidence. Am I missing something???

p.s. Just curious, but do you think that Ted Cruz would not be attacked by the media with the same fervour, if perchance Trump were out of the running?

I know there are some who are calling him fascist too.

Oh, I know there’s nothing against Cruz.

I’m not in favor of vilifying the frontrunner, I just think what he says and does some of the time is counter-productive.

I think he’s getting it because he’s the GOP frontrunner, and there are nefarious forces behind his opposition on the left. But they might do that to any republican frontrunner, except maybe Cruz because he has some ethnicity immunity by progressive standards.

And it’s not Cruz supporters who are calling him fascist, that’s what some in the left-wing base every time there’s a republican running. :rolleyes: When a party doesn’t have tenable policy positions or ideas that constantly fail, that’s what people do. 🤷

Frankly, the GOP platform is the precise opposite of fascism which involves state-run enterprise. From a political science POV, it is impossible to be a Constitutional conservative and a fascist.

Ironically, the major candidate closest to that is Bernie Sanders, whom many of these “protesters” support. :o:blush::rolleyes:
