My right wing Tea Party brother says (about Trump)

My right wing Tea Party brother says:

"It's disgusting the way Democrats and the main stream media use Trump's own words to attack him.
It's proof Clinton is losing the election!"

Huh?

"Like and share if you accept Trump's apology!"
"At least he didn't kill anybody like the Clintons!"
And the best one--"news flash! Trump is a heterosexual male" like this stuff is normal and acceptable!!

same thing when I talk to my republican family...they are not tea partiers, just your average ignorant republicans. I do think the hatred for Clinton helps fuel their defense of Trashheap ...I still can't understand the hatred...it's like a rabid, passionate hatred.
