You took the words out of ALL our mouths.

I'm still sitting here wondering why nobody's covering the FACT of all the Trump rallies where they're wearing "Trump the Bitch" and "Hillary for Prison" t-shirts (AND worse), roaring "lock her up" with fists waving in the air, picking fights with people on hand with whom they disagree, menacing, threatening, and getting in-yer-face with some of 'em a la Wrestlemania, and even beating up on little old ladies who dare to disagree.

NO coverage of that.

But how can ANYONE claim that this behavior is not deplorable, AND THESE PEOPLE WHO OPENLY AND PROUDLY DISPLAY THIS BEHAVIOR, are not deplorable? Who can honestly excuse this and claim it's no big deal?

Hillary was RIGHT.
