I would ask him "Are you disturbed enough to finally abandon your moderate (but rock-solid Republican) soul and become a journalist instead of a pundit? 45 and his sheep are never going to change so quit acting so shocked.

the post makes it clear he is referring to Gergen, and that it is his opinion.....which I very much agree with. Repukes are good at talking and acting oh-so-shocked, but do they (or we) REALLY expect any different from the that piece of shit Trump?

change his position on the Rethug Party.

Trump will use the White Nationalist movement to his advantage against any and every Liberal ideal group in the Country.

the fact that he is seen as non partisan that works with both sides makes it even better.

11. This Was the Most Disgusting Thing I Have Ever Seen on American TV

This nasty, hate filled speech was one of the most disgusting things I have ever heard on American TV. My stomach turned as Trump demonized democrats, Hispanics, Arabs and made people think that they were being threatened by these groups. This raised the level of fear and hate in this country. If the stadium filled with people was the real America then, God help us! He pushed the buttons of fear, hate, racism, nationalism, war and made people afraid and hateful. He said that we have to have a battle with the Sanctuary Cities that seek to protect these criminals who are threatening your family! We have stooped very low here. We must get this man impeached! He is hateful and dangerous.

But from what I've gathered the US does not have any real hate speech laws.

I doubt the guy could tell you the price of gas or the price of a gallon of milk in the last 30 years, but I know that is not what this thread is not about. Say hi to Dr. Kissinger for me at your next cocktail party.

Peace

16. He is nothing more than a hate monger.

Because he knows that his true base is in right-wing hate groups and neo-nazis. Others can possibly be reasoned with, but not these people. They will always stand by him and he knows it.
