But if he didn't fight back, with lots and lots of tweets among other ways, he probably would have been destroyed. And it is obvious to me that the intention has been to destroy him.

So I give him kudos for defending every millimeter and ounce of personal turf that he still has. Even when he is mistaken, I understand the gravity of what is being attempted against him and the need to counter it. And I understand why you so strenuously speak in accord with those who oppose him. And why every little possibly denigrating word or move he speaks or makes must be weaponized against him when the big, important, stuff he is accused of fails.
last week, cnn had the head of the psychology department of Duke university on. he said trump has killed millions more than hitler, stalin, or mao, and the host didn’t object. that’s as crazy and as antithetical to fair play as anything trump has ever done. the libs changed the rules in 2008, and after two cycles the right figured out to nominate someone quite at home in the arena of dirty fighting, and now the left acts as if they did nothing to bring this about. they portrayed mccain as a senile old racist, and romney as a heartless plutocrat who objectified women, too bad for them if someone’s better at that game than they are, you reap what you sow.
