He's hoping the Black Lives Matter black people will come out and demonstrate against him. That will be a big race card play in his favor with lots of Repub primary voters.
Despicable behavior from Gov. Christie.

Basically I see Obama as a little bit to the right of Eisenhower. And yet he's called a Marxist by today's Republicans. Bernie Sanders is no more a so************************t than LBJ was. His ideas are certainly no more radical than LBJ's were.

Chomsky explained that both parties have become more right-wing, with the GOP embracing radical extremism and mainstream Democrats occupying territory once held by moderate Republicans.

Quote:
The Democratic party has also undergone a profound transformation.

"Today's mainstream Democrats are pretty much what used to be called Republicans. Somebody like Eisenhower would be considered way out on the left," he noted, explaining that Eisenhower supported New Deal programs, while modern-day Republicans are eternally trying to gut the safety net.

You may scoff at only 3 voters found doing wrong, but he says he knows about...100!

To put this rampant fraud in it's proper perspective, consider that over 1 million people voted in the presidential election in Kansas in 2012.

This isn't funny any more. Trump is dangerous. He has been slowly bring his "fans" to a boil. The beating of a homeless Hispanic in Boston was indicative of
"Phase 1". The beating of a Black Lives Matter heckler in Alabama, on instructions from Trump himself, was "Phase 2". Now we have "phase 3". In Minneapolis today, three white Trump Terrorists gunned down 5 African Americans who were peacefully protesting the police shooting of Jamar Clark.

The war has begun.

While it's perfectly in character with Trump and his minions, i don't exactly see a definite link in the reporting so far....

1. The goons who stomped the Hispanic in Boston actually said that they were inspired by Trump.

2. The Black Lives Matter heckler was at a Trump rally and the people who attacked him did so because Trump told his audience to "Get him the Hell outa here!"

3. Unlike the other two instances, there's no "proof" but, following close on the heels of the Trump-ordered attack on one BLM protester, the shooting of other BLM protesters is almost certainly connected to Trump.

Trump is representative of a quite nasty Zeitgiest undercurrent that is being helped by the legitimacy being given him by networks such as NBC, etc. America should not be tolerating this legitimacy much less nominating him for office.
