      You should read this @laurawags essay. We’ve had two years with Trump, and too many folks are still unwilling to call out racist bullying. On video! If you need to experience this to recognize it, we are in trouble. http://deadsp.in/CZdFhzn

          The DNC is a black KKK hate group and no journalist will talk about it! Shameful. Their DNC propaganda is 4 racist simpletons and the obama’s have created 60 million bigots, which their propaganda produce daily! Missed a KKK meeting, watch The View to catch up on latest bigotry

          #FakeNews #Fraud Operatives working at/for the #DNC have been busted revealing that they hired people, including the mentally ill, to cause violence at Trump rallies. They're not interested in genuine politics. #NathanPhillips is part of that leftist mob.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7QX1aAYR_qQ …

          Well Reza was one of the first to threaten violence for a facial expression. Personally I thought that Americans should be free to express language, offensive and even racially charged, without the threat of violence. In Reza’s America you should be hit for the way you look.

          If having contempt for an a tribal elder is bad, disrespecting the president of the United States equally bad?

          There is so much glass house stuff coming from people who have their own teenage boys. Here's a quote "My teen would never mock some guy who came up to me with a drum for no apparent reason." I hate Trump but I know this is all about the MAGA hat.
