2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumLet me be clear...
There is only one candidate that has declared war on the GOP - That is Donald Trump.
There is only one candidate that has incited violence in his supporters - That is Donald Trump.
The only group of political supporters who have used violence in support of their candidate - They are Trump supporters.
So when we see acts of vandalism and violence - we need to remember that they have already shown us who they are.

(297,275 posts)As they say - past is prologue. Just listen to all the insane Trump supporters threatening violence as their candidate rails against the GOP. Meanwhile there is zero evidence Democrats or Independents have used violence in support of their candidates.
Trump has sown the storm - and now the GOP with reap the whirlwind.

(5,049 posts)I would not be surprised if there are shootings before November 8th. Trump has attracted an army of deplorables. You know it, I know it, everyone knows it. His most loyal supporters are militia members, racists, constitutionalists, and Teabaggers. Their rhetoric is white hot and none of them flinch at the mention of violence.
There are lots of sick fucks out there - just look at the recent sagebrush rebellion standoffs. Those are all Trump supporters. Locked and loaded and fixin for a fight. Trump has already lit the fuse, it's just a matter of time before they kill someone.
