In response to the attack, Trump said, “I will say that people who are following me are very passionate. They love this country and they want this country to be great again. They are passionate.” He did not initially decry their actions, but later stated on Twitter that he thought the attack was “terrible.”

The joke is over. The horrors of a Trump presidency should not be lost on anyone...

“The horrors of a Trump presidency should not be lost on anyone..”

But sadly enough here on FR, there are a lot of people who aren’t getting the joke.

They love the bombast, the arm-waving and the red-meat attacks but by large, many of them have no real idea what Trump stands for or let me rephrase that, what he currently “stands” for.

You think it would be better with Jeb, Hillary, or Bernie as President?

Do you disagree with what Trump said in the quote you posted?

It may be small consolation but Trump will never be president. He might get the GOP nomination. If he does he will lose, I believe very badly, in the general election. We are driving off a political cliff.

FWIW and repeating what I have said for months, I will not vote for the man under any circumstances.

Um. No. The reality is finally dawning on these guys, instead of going to the "acceptance" stage of grief, they are back to anger.

I don't doubt there aren't a few nuts out there in any campaign---can you say "Black Lives Matter?" Can you say, "Crazed Black Homosexual Shooter?" But we also know there are plenty of plants from the DNC and, I suspect, the Bush camp.

I've been to a dozen Tea Party rallies or events. I never once heard anyone shout "white power" or hold up an offensive sign.

So I file this under more hysteria from the Left. Go Trump!

I was there. Didn’t hear anyone shouting anything racist. I know if I did, me and the folks who were there with me,we would have quashed it quick and fast.

Personally, I advocate for a right-wing reactionary fascist tyranny, with the hanged bodies of leftists decorating the streets of every town, and full-to-capacity Lubyanka-like torture facilities, with the leftists constantly screaming in agony, and a radio channel dedicated to broadcasting their screams for all to hear. I advocate right-wing death squads screaming through the cities on souped-up motorbikes, gunning down anyone even suspected of harboring a single left-wing thought, in broad daylight.
