    So you dishonestly equated criticism to condoning fascism and violence against dissenters.

    That's fascist.

    I've never seen any American politician in modern history take more action to try to suppress free speech than Trump has. His frivolous lawsuits against free speech alone demonstrate that. The dude literally believes it should be illegal to call his buildings ugly.

    What are you talking about? It's the left telling people what you can and cannot say, how you have to address people, ****ing pronouns, making people switch the names of football teams, pulling down monuments, shutting down speakers at universities...

    Trump has done nothing except call an idiot an idiot. Whoop de doo.

    "The left" is not a politician. Please read before responding.

    Suppression of free speech was common practice on college campuses. Free Speech Zones allowed liberals to enjoy hearing their own voice while those with opposing views had to stay out of earshot. Wearing a MAGA hat in Los Angeles would be a good test!

    Can you give me an example of Trumps "action" to suppress free speech?

    Yet you neglect the "you don't want to do that part.". Let me dumb it down for people. Does Trump want violence? No, but if he was thrown around like a bag of popcorn would he care? Also no. He's not advocating violence. He's stating in no uncertain terms that he holds this individual in complete disregard.

    Should he have said it? Of course not, but for me personally in these four years, I've learned that reading comprehension is not this country's strong suit.

    Fascism is seen in the Princeton study.. And it comes from both parties. Mocking the msm and their by bias isn't fascism. Only representing special interests like big banks and big business is fascism.

    Trump haters don't know definitions. What terms mean. Lol Its the hysteria.

    If trump loses I will miss the hysterics coming from his opposition. For it has been entertaining! They have been mental cases since trump made them cry. Most entertainment involved the non stop hysteria. When bubble gum heads exploded.. Been like the fourth of July!

    Fascism emerged as a counterweight to Communism. If I have to choose between the two I choose fascism every time. :salute:

    A reporter put himself in the middle of an anarchist riot and tries to downplay it and gets hit by a rubber bullet, yeah hilarious. Remember the reported sitting in a boat talking about all the flooding and then a couple of people walk by and the water is ankle deep? Hilarious.

    And how exactly is the SCOTUS going to "rubberstamp" the election?

    That's literally not how it works. Let's say I were an Antifa supporter and I echo'd the call to punch a nazi, I don't care to throw that punch and hey, it's cool if no one ever does but if they did, I'll shrug my shoulders.

    (Note to everyone I'm neither an Antifa supporter or an advocate of violence. This is a purely hypothetical exercise).

    So you support violence against reporters because they shouldn’t be there?
    So like Daniel Pearl?

    Wow you either don’t know what love is or a shoulder shrug. If you’ve got a special someone, or just a mom, next time they say they love you, shrug lol

    You don't know what sarcasm is. Trump's verbal expressions have been graded at a 5th-6th grade level, you should be questioning yourself on how you're NOT getting it lol.

    No, it was always sarcasm. There's different types of sarcasm, in this case it was bitter sarcasm. Trump basically said "You'd hate to see it.", but swapping the word "hate" with "love", contextually here it means the same thing. Internet memers use this phrase often.

    My mistake he didn’t actually say love. So you’ll have to make up something else for it not to be supporting violence against reporters
