Gotta earn it.

They have been for too long used to winning things like taking away my rights and taxing the hell out of me and choking business and America to death with regulations (pen and phone?) via government.

That shit is over. They will win nothing from me. They will have to earn everything and I don’t much mind saying I am certain that will not happen. They simply hate our Constitution too much as it gets in their way of “winning” stuff from me.

They can piss right off.

/rant off

The thought of still being seen as a “Deplorable” at Rat Party Headquarters has me on the brink of psychiatric collapse.

The author of that piece is neither naive nor delusional. He is a bald-faced liar. Plain and simple. We must stop letting them off the hook by thinking they are mental cases. They are quite clear minded in their goals and their hate.

Look at the comments from after the article.

Yikes!

Liberals really are hate-filled towards normal Americans.

It's difficult to find one liberal who *doesn't* consider us deplorable.

The liberal will NEVER coexist with the TRUE Conservative. Nevertrumptards are just as bad.

The lefties NEVER apologize for those wackadoodle professors or overzealous school officials who suspend a kid who eats his Pop Tart into a shape that looks like a gun.

You make an excellent point. Allow me to demonstrate: I don't see or hear a single left-tard apologizing for the stupid diarrhea that exits Maxine Waters mouth every day.

Case closed!!

Read the comments. They are filled with bile and seething hatred. They accuse conservatives of being hateful. I dare any one of them to go on facebook and make an innocuous positive comment about something inconsequential about trump. Then they will see what hate is.

NO, he's just lying. For one, he says it's not policies. Hell, yeah, it is. Secondly, he claims that Obama’s and Hillary's extremely obnoxious and disrespectful comments were taken out of context. There is no context in which they could be “respectful”

He thinks condescension is "showing respect", or claims to. No. He's just lying, and that's not respectful.

You need respect, get a dog.

You want validation, ask the valet...

Why is it that I could only get half way through that article before my stomach started to churn?

Respect?? That would only mean something if they would just learn to get off my lawn!!!

Things like threatening MY personal ownership of MY guns, is ‘on MY lawn’.

I think “Get off my lawn!” should be our cry, it means a lot of things to me.

Read the comments.

Out of curiosity I just did that. Wow. Talk about shooting the entire premise of the article out of the water! That's pure, unadulterated hatred you see there - I wonder if the author has read them?

Why do political philosophies want respect from the other guys? That seems superfluous.

Respect is earned.

Name 1 thing Dems have done in the last 10 years that is worthy of even a nod at respect?

That’s a hoot. The Leftists who show nobody respect, even their own, now want respect?

OMG those folks are running on empty.
