So to you, calling MS-13 animals., is fear-mongering and divisive. Have fun with that.

And when Obama said “republicans gotta stop just hatin’ all the time”, that was intended to bring us together? Same with Hilary’s deplorable comments?

What do you call when you compare one statement that a Dem. made with 0,000s of statements Trump made and consider them equal?

speaking of hypocrisy - did you comment in the Samantha Bee thread about what a vile word the "C" word is yet you've used that same vile word in the past. I'm assuming you didn't make any statements.

Didn't I pull up a thread when you where blaming the Dems. for the Scalise shooting showing that you and double standard made the exact opposite arguement when Giffords was shot?

If that was the only time that Obama/Clinton demonized Republicans for their beliefs, you'd have a point. It wasn't, so you don't.

Trump is much more overtly vulgar than Obama or Clinton. I don't think he's more divisive. Liberals just didn't see the divisiveness when Obama was POTUS, because they weren't the ones getting demonized.

This is why Trump is POTUS.


"did you comment in the Samantha Bee thread about what a vile word the "C" word is yet you've used that same vile word in the past."

I didn't use it at my job. If I did, I'd expect to be fired. Apples and oranges. I concede that it's a disgusting term. No hypocrisy, zip.

It wasn't, so you don't.If you think it is a good comparison to compare the very, very few statements of Obama/Clinton to the daily tweets of Trump you have lost your mind. There is no comparison.

Liberals just didn't see the divisiveness when Obama was POTUS, because they weren't the ones getting demonized.yet, Trump calls Dems and the press enemies of the country and scum. Obama or Clinton never used such language - not even close. You used to complain that Obama would talk about Bush yet Obama never made lies up about him like Trump does. Drop the moral outrage.

This is why Trump is POTUS.

Sure it is hypocrisy. She is a late night comedian. Shouldn't have said it but they want late night comedians to be edgy. You used it so cut the moral outrage.
