That highlight the lousy reporting based on anonymous sourcing, I "liked Trump". It's fascinating.

I think there lots of "assumptions" folks are willing to make because they think they're tight and want to be right, but it simply closes them off to other possibilities . For example, I'm now a racist because I suggested that folks with rather unpopular opinions have freedom of speech.
Of course he's not, whell. Nice try with a weak misdirection though. Or maybe you're just not bright enough to follow the discourse you're generating.

Your question is pure bullsh. You've been the Artless Dodger dancing around the subject of whether or not you support President Trump, issue notwithstanding.

Nice poor little misunderstood/abused me closing whine.

He definitely has not shown the capacity (or humanity necessary) to say "I was wrong about Trump and I find his use of racial hatred to polarize America and fire up his base disgusting," even though we now have direct quotes from Bannon saying just that (as if that were necessary after the Central Park Five, Birtherism, Judge Curiel, Mexicans are rapists, Muslim ban ...).

Back in a particularly heated interchange with Whell when he was (yet again) defending the indefensible from Trump, I said he had lost his soul. Nothing about that has changed.

Then you did see the dark humor and if it didn't generate at least a little squirm ...

He seems more of a Ted Nugent or Kid Rock guy.

Here's some free speech from one of Trump's "fine people" in Charlottesville.

A tweet from the account of the far-right activist who organized the Charlottesville “Unite the Right” rally insulted the protester who was killed at the event, saying late Friday night that her death was “payback time.”

"Heather Heyer was a fat, disgusting Communist," said the tweet on the account belonging to Jason Kessler . "Communists have killed 94 million. Looks like it was payback time."

I am very leery of these extremist types since their agenda is only to spread the hatred. So why not post something vile and then later claim that they were hacked? Here is where I say guilty before proven innocent.

You're right, it doesn't. It also doesn't justify vigilantism.

No, you asked me why I supported Trump. Yes, I voted for the guy, but that doesn't mean that I support everything he says and does. YOU are the one who makes that assumption/assertion with literally every post, and it renders your posts meaningless.
