(88 posts)There is no war. Only small minded individuals trying to make the majority believe they are bigger than they are.
We all know they will claim Dems are doing it to themselves to rile up the base, ignore it, and show them they aren't bigger.

I already peaked at Fox News comments just to watch it happen because I knew it would. Crazy, but I try to calm myself by saying many of those comments are Russian bots (and that there are at least 3,000,000 more people in this country that didn't want Trump than did.)

(10,832 posts)The 'war' theme is being exaggerated to frighten people, the same inspiration behind this flurry of bomb deliveries--intimidate, frighten and keep people from the polls. Create chaos so people hide under their beds.

The Imposter-in-Chief has turned up the temperature to a raging boil with his disgusting rhetoric. Time to shut it down with huge, indisputable numbers at the polls, time to point fingers at the Ugly American sitting in the WH, truly the Emperor without Clothes.
Also time to face and push back the Imposter's odious acolytes with a simple declaration:
This Will Not Stand.
