It's more than a little like Obama and his supporters in 2008. In each case, there is a double standard for the candidate and his supporters. They and their Hope and Change are not allowed to be criticized, and they are attacked for having the audacity to criticize.
And both Trump and Obama set out to break down traditional American values and replace them with manners derived from the 1960s.
I can say that because I have been on the receiving end of the juvenile insults from Cruz supporters back when I was clearly stating my support for Cruz and Trump. Simply because I didn’t hate Trump with the same passion as they do.
I’ve not ONCE had a Trump supporter claim to be able to hear dog whistle in a neutral post that I have made. I’ve had it done more times than I can count by the TDS crowd here.
