http://thehill.com/homenews/media/400190-boos-for-cnn-break-out-at-trump-rally

After a day of tension between the White House and CNN, the crowd at President Trump’s Pennsylvania rally on Thursday night broke out into chants of “CNN sucks” when the president blasted "fake news."

Trump at the rally in Wilkes-Barre cited multiple examples of what he called "fake news," including saying the “fake news refused to call” Pennsylvania for him during the 2016 presidential election.
==================================================
Trump as the Pied Piper leading a lot of us down the black hole toward totalitarianism.
 
If only Obama had spent half the time trying to connect with his supporters as Trump does.

With Obama's plans and his high approval numbers, think what he could have done if he had rallied the people instead of getting right down to the business of compromising with the insurance companies and the senators who were in the Big Health lobby's pocket.

We could have had the public option. And that would have helped Obama keep more of his promises. And that would have helped him keep the Congress so that he could keep even more of his promises.

trump's idea of being President seems to be preening like some arrogant asshole in front of a bunch slobbering ignorant white people...Is this like rally No. 534?
 
Someone is going to get hurt before this is over........we are heading for what Zimbabwe is experiencing, we'll be referred to as a ****hole country before long!

This can only have a very negative effect on the foreign tourism business, as I'm sure the Paris & Brussels attacks have had on Europe.

It would seem that the nation is on this course, that someone is going to get killed or maimed due to having differing political opinions.

My bet is that it'll be someone from the left that kills or maims someone they disagree with (hasn't ANTIFA already done this? Cause serious injury?), and that it won't be with a gun, but a baseball bat or a car or something.

Of course, it may depend on how to consider the Bernie supporter who shot up a peaceful congressional baseball practice. A nut case? Or not?

That for me was one of the biggest plusses of Bernie's approach -- his outreach. His 50-state plan.

But Democrats didn't see the importance of it. Not for the 8 years of Obama. Not when Bernie gave the Clinton machine a run for its money based on purely grassroots support.

And so here we are with President Trump and his Godwin-begging rallies.

Take another look at some video from Tampa; left/right is not going to mean much once the tipping point is reached. I don't recognize my country anymore.

This slobbering animals looked like they were transported from 1960's Alabama.....Shameful
 
...and the left is scrambling once again, trying to distract from their own shortcomings and lack of platform. It is getting pretty lame. People like me, who are looking for a party to vote for, are left wondering if Trump is actually more successful than he is getting credit for. We are also wondering if the left has anything to stand for other than vicious and deliberate mob attacks. Focus, come up with a better platform, make it your own. We are watching and observing.

Topic: Is the loud foul mouth ignorant trump supporters....Whipped up into a frenzy against the free press...By that preening asshole trump.....You observed that?.....Try to keep up

There is a mounting evidence that Trump is going senile. It's called dementia. You want to vote for someone who is mentally handicapped?

Try reading my post.
 
Don’t be surprised if the rhetoric that Trump is feeding his trailer park ‘murica’ followers produces another Tim McVeigh.
 
This video shows these loud mouth slobs....Screaming obscenities and threats at the free press...The leap to attacks against other Americans and law enforcement isn't very far with this crowd

You are absolutely correct. This president has done nothing but enabled a fringe element. Giving angry ignorant white trash a voice. A well balanced and functioning government requires moderation not extremism. Average mainstream America is going to grow weary of this and the pendulum is gonna swing back the other way driving the cockroaches back in the dark.

You're right. We don't see protesters at Dem rallies. It's those PMS Lefties that feel the need for protest and violence.
 
Fact-checking on the rate of violence from Left and Right wing extremists - this may put things in perspective here....

I see a woeful shortage of posts here that lack supporting statistics and other documentation. Best not to form opinions by listening to political or showbiz personalities that you find charismatic. Looking at evidence and attending to what it shows is a much better foundation for them.

Pretty clear that the motivating factor for what you saw in Tampa is the electorate's reaction to the left's veering off into the hard left.

Perhaps the hard left should be observant of this, and moderate? It is, after all, that the left has moved even further left.

I'd welcome classical liberals and classic liberal thought as a check and balance to the right extremists. The entire country was founded on checks and balances, and with the left's veering to the hard left, losing and continue to lose political power, is failing in it's much needed checks and balances role.

"Trump is actually more successful than he is getting credit for"
Yes.
 
So is any criticism of a news corporation considered as being on the path to totalitarianism, or just the media outlets you like?
