    62 million Americans voted for George W. Bush. 61 million voted for Mitt Romney. 60 million voted for John McCain. Why is it not considered a personal insult to those voters to criticize those men in the most caustic of terms?

        I mean, I had my disagreements with each of them, particularly Romney. But you know, a lot of the people peddling "any criticism of Trump insults his voters" now also voted for those guys then.

        If the argument is that it's OK to attack politicians because they pulled the wool over the eyes of their own voters, well...are we not permitted to make the same argument re Trump?

        I guess it's Trumpers' way of tacitly admitting that Trump voters have more delicate feelings than other voters do

        Really? What about 2 years of Not my President, and all 4 years of whining, pouting and later violence by the lefties?

        The first rule of Trumpism is that the rules don't apply to Trumpism.

        100s of millions of people use amazon, iphones, etc., you dont insult everyone who is a fan of a thing when you insult it. There are people who will be personally offended you "f***ing hate dumbass iphones", but most will recognize a diff in opinion

        And what about the voters who elected Liz Cheney overwhelmingly? Aren't those people trashing Liz Cheney insulting 185,000 Wyomingites?pic.twitter.com/7FOEtI1rsm

        "Because most of those were fake votes" is probably their response. It's easy to dismiss arguments like that if you just deny the existence of facts or people.
