From the comments section (and not one liberal was able to respond):
Sonia - I appreciate your well-written article, but it’s really unfortunate that your political views lead to completely condescending viewpoints on people who support Donald Trump. The problem with liberals is that if a conservative or Donald Trump has a different point of view on illegal immigration, abortion, refugee resettlement or any other topic, we’re immediately branded as uncaring, a racist, etc. It’s intellectually deficient on the left’s and your part. The media is so far left that it’s the single biggest threat to our democracy. I’ve seen plenty of puff pieces for the media with Obama and Clinton over the years. Is it hard to believe that, perhaps, Jimmy Fallon may like or support Donald Trump? I guess in Hollywood if you have a different opinion from the liberals, you’re not welcome. That doesn’t sound very “inclusive” to me...
Trump’s biggest problem is that he has good ideas, but doesn’t always clearly articulate them and provide the necessary detail. Yet, I’m a supporter still because Hillary is not truthful and her ideas will cripple our country economically - BTW - we can’t deliver the liberals’ beloved government programs with long term GDP growth rates of 1% - that’s the left’s American economy...
The major hypocrisy of the left is that you and they hold yourselves out as being “open-minded”, “caring”, “inclusive”, etc. That only holds true if one agrees with your ideas. As soon as we don’t (for example my clear, reasonable and coherent explanation of a conservative’s view on illegal immigration below), we’re called names. Also, I don’t see Republicans going to Democrat political events and creating riots or blocking access, etc. It’s only Democrats doing so at Republican events. It’s un-American and illegal, but the government is afraid or unwilling to stop it.
Just because Donald Trump or I don’t want illegal immigration (which it is - undocumented immigrants is a farce - as James Woods quipped, it’s analogous to a heroine dealer being called an undocumented pharmacist... both are illegal and not good for the country) doesn’t mean he or I hate Hispanics, etc. Frankly, if the left understood simple economics, those candidates would support ending illegal immigration.
Eliminating the inflow of illegal immigrants, who otherwise take entry level jobs at lower than normal hourly rates, often under the table, significantly depresses wages for poor blacks, Hispanics, and whites, etc. We wouldn’t need to artificially raise the minimum wage because businesses would have to raise their pay rates when they didn’t have these willing, but illegal workers. I see it in my own town in PA. Another critical consideration is that the billions spent on welfare, medicaid, and other government subsidies (schooling costs), etc. for illegal immigrants would otherwise go to reducing the deficit (the deficit harms all Americans) or paying for additional valuable services for poor blacks and whites, legal resident Hispanics. Also, I’m not suggesting we deport those who are here. That’s not feasible, but it doesn’t make sense to reward someone who broke the law with voting rights. A middle ground of legal residence without voting rights can likely be had with Trump and ending illegal immigration will provide significant wage rate increases at the lower end and will provide good jobs for those low skill workers not working today.
Fallon never had any credibility.
Which candidate still flings N-bombs?
Can you believe it? The same people that purposefully lie day after day complain when someone bothers to just have fun?
Let’s see...Fallon had both candidates on his show and kept the interviews light hearted and fun because that is what he does. His audience isn’t expecting hard hitting questions.For right now, Kudos to Fallon.
A comedian has credibility?
They’re completely unhinged.
“becomes president, that image of Fallon ruffling Trump’s hair will be the moment when the tide turned. The gesture was so affectionate and grandfatherly that Fallon provided Trump with a seal of mainstream approval that he does not”
Hahaha
The same media people who are so outraged over this had no problem with Hillary's pickle jar stunt on Jimmy Kimmel's show.
Describing Trumps mess up hair as “cotton-candy-like wisps”
That made me laugh.
Exhibit A - If you do not toe the party line you will be attacked.
How laughable!
Comedians prefer President Trump because they can joke about him and Trump doesn’t mind at all. They can’t joke about a pathetic, gasping old woman who is having seizures.
LMAO!
“.....Fallon could have, as it is his job, made fun of his easily mockable guest.....”
My favorite part of the article.
Tousling Trumps hair is a perfect way to make fun of him. But not vicious enough for the left, apparently.
Remember the petition that was circulating a few months ago to demand that NBC not let Trump host SNL? Are these people really that cut off from reality? Who do they think they are? It’s the very definition of group-think.
This is not an election to sit out.
Trump should of brought a pickle jar and opened it with a loud pop.
