So I'm reading all this hoopla over Donald Trump being a douche to a Gold Star family because that family challenged him.
I'm not here to rehash the idiocy of chump. The only, ONLY rebuttal that matters to counter his stupid is to play the video of W. handling the Cindy Sheehan stuff. That was presidential (whether you like the man or not, or agree with him, that was a well handled situation) and Trump has not been.
What this thread is focused on, is the behavior of the people defending chump.
Starting threads attacking the family, posting crap from Breitbart and as much as I once liked that site, they are turning into the Media Matters of the Right, with their entire existence now about Donald Trump. Truth, honesty or manners be damned.
Which means there are posters here, people out there in the real world, all trying to defend the indefensible, and since chump is a completely rude, crude and vile human in his mannerism and how he handles himself... too many of his supporters seem to think this is empowering to them personally. Look at the attacks on Mr. Khan. Dirty. Dirty stuff.
Look at how maniacal chumps champs are! Every day that passes makes me more disgusted frankly, more despondent about the future of not just the Conservative movement, the GOP (I still harbor hope reason blossoms after Trump flames out) but for America.
People, Politics isn't about WINNING, it's about the better of America, not beating the "other side". If you lose your soul to "Beat them"...
What have we won?
I'll admit, I've been a hyper partisan asshole, maybe it's age, wisdom or other factors but... this is a level or terrible I cannot even fathom.
