The last person to act classy during a POTUS election was John McCain when he defended Obama from accusations of being a Muslim. In this election you have Hillary supporters calling Trump everything from a Russian double agent to fascist and Trump supporters calling Hillary everything from a traitor to crook.

Trump calls her a traitor and crook even more so than his supporters. Don't think Clinton has called Trump a Russian double agent or fascist yet, which shows once again that she doesn't even want to tell the truth! ;)

I don't agree with everything you post, Jhhnn, but I have to admit that this is the biggest reason that I am opposed to Trump. He brings out the worst in everyone.
Years ago, I had the opportunity to see a lecture series that included Gerald Ford. No, I'll be the first to admit that I am no fan of Ford, and actually went to see Christopher Reeve, but I walked away being most impressed by Ford, weird as that sounds. Here was this least regarded of American Presidents, never even elected, and yet he loved America so much, and had such a positive vision of this nation's future. I was in awe.
I challenge any of you to watch Reagan's 1980 RNC acceptance speech, side by side with Trump's speech this year, and I hope that you can understand why I may never forgive the Republican party for what they've done.

Gerald Ford believed in the Government of the People. Modern Republicans have been tearing that down for at least 20 years so that corporate interests could fill the power vacuum in utterly non-democratic ways, with trickle down goodness from the jerb creators.

If I were a nasty sort of woman I'd call this karmic retribution.

...oh, wait, I am. Suffer and die, GOPigs. The violent dems aren't right, but that just means you can all go to hell together and get a group discount or something.

Karmic retribution for what? Wearing a hat?

They might want to consider releasing the four men arrested for defending themselves earlier in the year if they want these kinds of events to decline in their city.

See, that kind of hateful rhetoric just makes people vote Trump to spite you.

It doesn't make me want to vote Trump to spite her (nothing would do that), but it does make me want to call her case worker to ensure she's taking her meds like she's supposed to be as a condition of her release from the psych ward.

Would to heaven you were actually funny. Too bad you're so completely morally, intellectually, and rhetorically bankrupt that literally all you have is "hurr she's crazy." Try again when you graduate from the third grade, noodle boy...

A lack of being self aware enough to have a sense of humor seems to be a major problem in the world in general.

You're exactly right! Trump is clearly a paid Clinton campaign operative!

And here's the video to prove it!!!!!!11!1!!

Just kidding.

That said, it's hilarious when delusional conservative imbeciles attempt to just flat out fucking lie about their right-wing authoritarian candidate that they worship like disgusting pigs.

They live in a alternate reality world where facts don't matter.
