Not surprising at all when you see how he will ratchet up the crazies at his rallies.

As a psychologist, this does not surprise me. I have see video of his rallies, I even had friend go. It is really a phenomenal experience. I actually as a therapist am curious and would like to see one in person. But I no wear any LGBTQ+ apparel (I not have any...... anyhow )

I live in a rural area of America. The vestiges of colonialism and racism are still functioning here. We've come a long way toward tolerance and love...till now. Trump and his followers are infecting our culture...for the worse. I literally, feel these vibes every day as I go about my life. I will tell you this...I and my friends are more confrontational now than just a few weeks ago. We know trump's minions know the reality...and we're not letting them forget it.

It's all a distraction. Trump has proven that he is incapable of giving a sustained intelligent, truthful, sensible, logical or 'presidential sounding' speech or talk on any subject so what can he do?
He has a room full of people waiting to be entertained so he tosses out short bursts of inflammatory nonsense that is picked up by individuals scattered in the crowd whose job it it to start the chant, get the action going, incite the rabble-rousers.
But to be effective he has to have a 'bad' guy. "Lock her up" could easily turn to "Lock him up", North Korea and Russia are now buddies, no one can be mad at Canada, mentioning Comey too much might bring on questions he can't answer. So who is left to hate on? The media and journalists, of course, and picking one individual or outlet gives the crowd a focus.
So no one can expect him to make a sensible, logical, informative statement in the midst of a bar-room brawl, can they?

He's a puppet and Putin is pulling his strings. I recently read somebody had on a Tee shirt at one of his "stir the pot" mindless rallies with, "I'd rather be a Russian than a Democrat!" I haven't fact checked that but I'm also not surprised. Idiots! Every single one of them.

The media is serious about doing their job....their job is to hold those in power accountable.....Donald Trump has a sh*t load to be accountable for and his fight against the media's exposing it, only adds to it. Its like a snowball rolling down a hill....I'm waiting for it to hit the brick wall.

The issue is.... he can't stand ANYONE standing up for truth.... he is a pathological liar. for example... California wildfires are being magnified & made so much worse by the bad environmental laws which aren’t allowing massive amount of readily available water to be properly utilized. It is being diverted into the Pacific Ocean. Must also tree clear to stop fire spreading!
Whaaaaat????? and just look at the Trump Towers Drama..... first it's adoption then it's not.... I didn't know a thing..... oh wait yeah I wrote a letter for my son..... but I still didn't know about meeting.... okay yeah I knew about meeting..... but we didn't get anything... oh for goodness sake.... sorry but collusion to commit a crime... it's called conspiracy... well after Giuliani continues to go on and on about collusion not a crime I get dizzy from all the spin!!!
