Trump is criticizing Joe Manchin for saving poor West Virginian's health care

And the West Virginians in the audience are applauding.


I would say something about the opioid epidemic that is ravaging West Virginia but since I'm a God fearing man I won't.

a dozen black men and shoot them in the head, live on stage, at first the crowd would be stunned, shocked, but slowly but surely they would look around, look at each other, look at him and the applause would start off slowly but build to a roar.

I don't think that the Trumpsters would be stunned or shocked even for a minute. They would scream and jeer and egg Trump on while he was doing it, just like every lynch mob.

Think of the people who scream at the press during his rallies.

Just look into the faces and eyes of the people that are jeering the Press. If they could murder a reporter or camera person and walk right away free foreever, they would kill the person in a minute. The have zero empathy for anyone that Trump tells them to hate.
