(1,494 posts)How in the hell can that kind of talk "Make America Great Again". This is all about making America HATE again -- and that my DU friends makes us, IMHO, not much worse than ISIL. If hate is in your heart than you become a dangerous and evil person...end of story.

(100,100 posts)Hillary's biggest flub so far is the mishandling of some e-mails. You know who Donald Trump has on his side? David Duke. White supremacists. North Korea. Isis. The scumbags of the world. Is that who we really want running this country?

(67,112 posts)Damn, I feel the US is going so backward. And I fear it's not going away after the election. The republicans are succeeding more and more, it appears, in bringing the downfall of the US into something horribly unpleasant.

(115,835 posts)I've been to a number of political rallies over the years and I've never heard a crowd calling for the death of an opponent - not even Reagan or Bush, and God knows we didn't like them very much.

I don't think I saw a single comment wishing him personal harm, and I was at least twice as active on DU then as I am now, so I saw them all.
I also kept regular tabs on F.R. during those days...some pretty despicable comments regarding Kerry, then Obama, but nothing I remember that advocated violence.
It's Sales 101...you identify the source of your prospect's pain, then make them feel it intensely before you offer the solution. Ethical salespeople are "problem solvers" and avoid the sadism. Salespeople like Trump fan the flames. He didn't create any of this. He found it, encouraged it, exploited it, all for his personal gain. He's failed in virtually every area of life and somehow hypnotized people who are disenchanted with their own lives and positioned himself as a messiah. Stories are written about this 7 days a week...mountains of his dirty laundry have been exposed...but he found a segment of society that is made up of individual ticking time bombs and told them that he could make the pain go away, and they believed him.

I hope that after Hillary wins, we can expose Trump's tax returns, haul his ass into court for sexual assault and just legally destroy the guy. He deserves no better for all the bullshit he has stirred up.
