It's one thing to dump on Trump, as author Rick Perlstein did on today's With All Due Respect, calling The Donald a modern-day George Wallace, and floating "fascism" about him. But Perlstein took things a nasty step further, denigrating Trump supporters in the ugliest terms.

Per Perlstein, Trump has unleashed forces in his supporters "that are more animalistic than human." Perlstein added that spectacle of the US losing to ISIS has filled Trump fans with "childlike, impotent rage."

Since we’re animals, I guess it’s okay to shoot?

From yesterday:

Loring Wirbel, board member of the American Civil Liberties Union’s Colorado chapter and co-chair of the ACLU’s Colorado Springs chapter, called for supporters of GOP presidential hopeful Donald Trump to be shot before they vote for the billionaire businessman.

[Former Proud Canadian]

Actually, laughable.

Oh, and hey, Rick, if you really want to see impotent rage, go to Raqqa.

[MEG33]

I think we have a lot of company!

GO CRUZ!
GO TRUMP!

In my analysis much of Donald Trump’s strength is many (most?) Americans have had a SNOOTFULL (good redneck word!) of being constantly, unrelentingly lectured at by a bunch of arrogant finger-wagging, self-appointed, self-righteous, self-anointed media /political /academic /”progressive” jerkfaces who see themselves as morally superior to GOD!!!... and above the law! They tell us that not wanting to be murdered by folks yelling “Allahu Akbar” makes us “hateful bigots”! They also inform us that we can’t be trusted with our guns, our faith, the cars we drive, and most importantly... our freedom. We have been accused that living a reasonably free and prosperous life in America is “hurting the planet” and now we’ve leaned, being white (and not ashamed) is “racist”! To “repent” we now must surrender our sacred birth right for rationed “red pottage” and sorrowfully admit the entire 240 year experiment in Constitutional governance under Judeo-Christian foundations is “violence” against the world. We’ve had enough, leave us the HELL alone liberals GO BACK to your ivory towers and shut the “F” up!!! Go The Donald (I prefer Cruz), America now needs a Patton now not another pointy head pants suit! God (of the Bible) bless America!

The bottom line here is that both interviewer and uest are in a small circle, and have no global picture. When Nixon in 1972 clobbered McGovern, there were liberal elites who only knew people who voted for McGovern. That is being played and re;played so often. Ans the Animal pictured is nothing special, just a socialist toady hawking a book.

[TTFlyer]

The Media and the GOPe have called Trump and his supporters everything from Hitler to fascists, bigots, racists, islamophobes, George Wallace, Goebbels, you name it.

Where do they go from here? Violence?

more animalistic than human

I'm busted. They finally got the Tater.

Name calling on a thread about bad name calling ?

Shame shame Roger Ramjet :)

[Trillian]

Evil down to their black hearts,which pump not blood but a vomitous oil that oozes through their veins clots in their brains, which causes their Nazi-esque violent behavior. s/, of course ;)

[Noumenon]

Echoes of that guy standing on a table in a biergarten singing “Tomorrow Belongs to Me”, eh?

The difference this time is that we’re doing slightly better than a Mauser and 20 rounds of 7.62x57.

[Noumenon]

Dead man walking.

[Roger Kaputnik]

Easy there, Buttercup. My comment was not “name calling”. Rather it was factually based upon my perception of his physical appearance. Bottom line: That dude is ugly.

Damn right. Now get out of our way!

[kiryandil]

If this Perlstein is such a great author, why haven't I ever heard of or read his books?

Or him, for that matter.

[Talisker]

This from a guy wearing a hipster dhimmi beard.

Ever notice how when the Left wants to be really insulting, they describe themselves?

[Talisker]

Don't read history if you don't want to know...
