Trump Supporters' Battle Cry: “Hang That B*tch!”

Jared Yates Sexton recently attended a Trump rally in Greensboro, NC and reported that he heard chants where Hillary Clinton was called a "bitch." Not shocking. She is a successful woman and nothing annoys a group of Republicans than a woman. Ok, they are also annoyed by gay people, people of color, anyone of a different religion, the disabled, etc. But a smart woman, a Democrat nonetheless, really gets to them.

Following the FBI and DOJ legally sound decision that no criminal charges were warranted in relation to emailgate, the supporters have become almost as unhinged as their leader. Their newest chant?

"Hang that bitch!"

Up against what is going on in black lives the last handful of days.,

They are standing on stage showing us who they are.

I saw a thread of a man pulling a gun out and sweeping the crowd a couple times. There are way more of us than there are of them.

Republicans and Trump followers are not reasonable. They're unhinged, and some are desperate to make sure she never walks into the WH again. They cannot be trusted to do the right thing if they had to make an on-the-spot choice.

They are Trump supporters. Almost to a poster.

They have a long thread about supporting Hillary or Trump and it is almost unanimously Trump. And the few who aren't support The Greens. And no, I will not post the thread.

Now they are even praising Republicans in the house investigating her.

It has become Free Republic II.

Criticism is getting alerted on and removed, although some, like mine, get restored through the appeal process.

I recall hearing individual members (not groups, individuals) of the crowds at McCain-Palin rallies shouting that Obama was a terrorist and should be killed.

On edit: And on social media (Facebook, for instance) I've seen violent threats against both the president and the former secretary of state, in one case explicit enough to warrant deleting.

Trump is dangerous...he has already caused damage just by being a candidate...I shudder to think what President Trump could do. Yes, the polls look good for Hillary and our side, but there is about a 40% baked in number for any GOP presidential candidate and hate sells...we need to work very hard and not get complacent about this dangerous man. He is the sort who runs once and then announces he is president for life. Also, I hope secret service is being very careful. No doubt she faces increased threats with the sort of irresponsible, reckless campaign that Trump and his minions are waging.

Watch for jumps in domestic violence and sexual harassment and sexual assault statistics over the next few years.

It will be statistically visible.
