Thousands of Americans participated in that most benign of civic rituals in San Jose, California, on Thursday night: seeing a presidential candidate speak. Of course, that candidate was Donald Trump, so as these engaged citizens streamed out of the arena, they were subjected to astonishing levels of violence. An angry mob pelted eggs, tomatoes, and bottles at the spectatorsas well as the police, who tried (and failed) to maintain some semblance of order. Other Trump supporters were set upon and punched. One was left with blood streaming down his face. (See representative video below.)
The mayor of San Jose, Democrat Sam Liccardo, reacted angrily to the events. Not that he was particularly upset at the violent mob that attacked innocent Americans, of course. No, his ire was directed at Mr. Trump. "At some point Donald Trump needs to take responsibility for the irresponsible behavior of his campaign," the mayor said. Apparently it was downright "irresponsible" of Trump to even set foot in California's third largest city.

Do you know the way
To San Jose?
Been run by Dems so long
They’re always wrong
But what the hey?
Do you know the way
To San Jose?
Voters have lost their minds
They’ve always whined
In Liberal Ways
Greenies want to kill the freeways
But a trillion down
And build a train
Hike the tax
Next you know
You’ve got a brain drain
Like Belgium, France and Spain
And then they flee
Straight down to Austin
And vote to turn it
into Boston
Leftists really seethe
In San Jose
They’ve got a lot of space
Between their ears
And vote that way
Facebook is based there
In San Jose
Feeding you just the news
They think you need
From day to day
Fame and fortune’s
An illusion
Won life’s lottery
Pulled from your hat
The ninety-nine percent know
You didn’t build that!
Dreams of revenge aimed
at those fat cats
And all the rest
Who didn’t earn
Six figure sums
Now feel the Bern
He’s got lots of friends in San Jose
Ohhhhh.....oh ohhhhh
Do you know the way to San Jose?
.................

“Arent we actually hoping it will come to that since we know that is the only way to end this decay? To either lose totally or end the insurrection?”
If our side ever did fight back, all Trump rallies would be shut down in the name of public safety. Our side would be blamed and featured for all violence. Tomato sauce would be rubbed on the faces of Mexican kids by the media, etc....Think 1938 Germany.
Any word from Obama and his henchman Loretta Lynch?
Good Job!
Sorry. Weakly Substandard is no longer welcome in my reading lists, no matter if they are occasionally right.
Trump is one of those “videos” that justify thugs to destroy/rape/murder......I bet he has something in store for the San Jose Mayor......and a way to tie it to Hillary and the Left.......
You expect to use the law? Against this?
You’ll be dead before the law accomplishes anything.
At some point some of us get over the ridicule that we are tin foil hat nuts and we finally recognize that the world is controlled by a few for the few and that the oligarchs take out anybody who gets in their pathway.
They allow their allies and useful idiots to rise to where they want them to rise and they take them out if they jump ship to no longer be useful to them.
I should say “with apologies to Burt Bacharach”.
But he’s a HUGE Lib, so no apologies are necessary.
The group was very diverse. There were a lot of black women there. Just my observation. Maybe there were black men too but I just didn’t see them. Lots of veterans I believe. Tons of Mexicans! We spoke to one guy on the way out who said that his grandfather was just appalled at the people saying F Trump whilst wagging a Mexican flag. He thought they were stupid. Lots of Asians too.
The crowd was very positive and reacted positively to Trumps talk about jobs and the vets and definitely THE WALL!
In other words, Trump should stop campaigning altogether and just let Clinton run unopposed?

Yep!
Thank YOU for sharing
While Bill Kristol is a jerk, the other editor Fred Barnes is while maybe not super pro Trump, he is definitely not #neverTrump.
I watch Lou Dobbs (in my opinion the most ardent Trump supporter in the media) regularly and he has Fred on quite a bit and he is mostly supportive.
Of course Fred is getting pretty old and may not realize his magazine is anti Trump.
It is well past time to employ the RICO statutes to investigate the Democrat party!
It's a liberal mayor trend in blue states.
Oakland mayor Jean Quan supported the 2012 Occupy Oakland movement and ordered the Oakland police department to let the protesters remain at the plaza in front of City Hall.
Baltimore mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake said of the 2015 riots "we also gave those who wished to destroy space to do that as well." In private meetings she reportedly said Let them loot, its only property.

Clueless mayor. To think he’ll be allowed to vote.
San Jose is a Mexican gang town run and controlled by the Hispanic gangs. The mayor is just a gang paid peon.

Let's go Penguins. Beat San Jose.
