    Yeah! Trump's crimes like inciting riots, getting cop killed, and getting all of Congress threatened, that is like so LAST WEEK!

    Lets get back to debating critical, important timely Republican issues like Hillary's email server!

    agree, but it was a bad joke, and it looked like a serious post

    The whole thing is laughable. Trump fashioned himself as Alexander the Great but instead he's Jabba the Tut and it's hilarious.

    Unlike most of you, I stay pretty consistent since I'm not tied to a certain side. Passionate folks on both sides need to take individual accountability. We are adults. Also, both sides should condemn, and not passively enable, the extremist behaviors. This includes rioters, looters, etc. There should be no gamesmanship there, where you dont want to anger your base so you stay quiet about it. Many political movements are guilty of this, as it's natural.

    I think this is a bit different because he acknowledged what he did and apologized for it. Trump hasn't said anything about his part in inciting the riots and, in fact, stated that his words were "totally appropriate". This doesn't excuse what Wilkinson wrote, but it speaks to his willingness to be accountable for what he wrote. Trump hasn't done anything close to that.

    Trump threw them under the bus when it was advantageous to him. Now, it would appear some of his followers are willing to throw him under the bus. Karma!

    I have to agree with the Democrats on this one. Let us not forget Benjamin Ghazi!

    Yes, we're all familiar with what passes for "humor" on the Left these days...

    How many died because a ginger comic took a picture?
    Meanwhile the MAGA riot left a cop dead.
    I get it, to the right, hurting Trumps feelings is worse than dead cops.

    Agreed, but I think Trump enjoys lying.
