Fear is a powerful instinct. Fear is so potent, and the innate drive to protect one’s self from harm is so overpowering, that it can override almost every other instinct, including those related to intellect and judgment.
Which is why Donald Trump desperately wants to frighten you.
The obvious problem with the Republican presidential nominee’s convention speech last night is that it was less a speech and more a series of strung together scary falsehoods.
[Snip]
Trump wants you to be afraid of criminals. And immigrants. And Democrats. And refugees. And government regulations. And quite possibly the monster that could be hiding under your bed.
In fact, as far as the Republican presidential candidate is concerned, the United States is already a dystopian hellscape, where the sun no longer shines, where few can experience joy, and where all hope is lost.
But don’t worry, Donald J. Trump can make America great again.
Just don’t ask him how.

Then why ban posters who don’t support Trump?
ReallY? He need Traitors among us?
Dog whistle they say. Who went woof woof woof?
This kind of article is on here for shooting at.
Why would anyone be surprised by the MSM’s reaction to the speech ?
Oakland Effect: The hard facts of stray bullets
The researchers found that stray bullet shootings contribute to a neighborhood's sense of insecurity. Children, they write, "are taught to avoid crowds and people talking loudly, run when they see weapons, drop to the ground when they hear gunfire while outside, and take cover away from windows if indoors -- in the bathtub, if possible"These are #Dark times
The media idiots are all full of themselves, having been fed ego food for 8 years by Big Ears.
I don’t like Big Ears. He ruined the economy as far as I am concerned. Their kisser-uppers should go hide their heads.
(His kisser-uppers)
lol
Liberals are hiding under the bed after Trump shined the light on them... and they assume everything else is hiding too!
Well.. sorry liberals. WE are holding the light for Trump!
so scurry away you little cockroaches !
Is that a bad case of acne, or something we don’t want to know?
This isn’t even targeted slayings, these are random rage.
I’ll get you my pretties ... and your little dog too!
HAAHAHAAHAHAHAHA!
Wow Hillary is creepy.
Say the people who have bodyguards and live in gated communities.
She is evil.
In the movie, a bucket of water was her nemesis, but theologically we need the use of the blood that this cat Jesus gave as a sacrifice.
Easy money, laundered thru global political networks.
“What are you so afraid of” say the cringing cowards.
The cognitive dissonance is strong in these people.
MSNBC = MAKE AMERICA BITE THE PILLOW AGAIN.
The liberal media is actually full of hate. They hate anyone who doesn’t think the same. Everyday they promote hate not the news.
I agree. Way too many negative Trump articles. It’s as if there is a purpose to it. FR is suppose to be all in now and motivating us to win in Nov, not be Debbie Downer’s.
They tend to be attention whores and don’t show much principle other than that.
