For civil discussion of US politics. Be excellent to each other.

Rule 1: Posts have the following requirements:
▪️ Post articles about the US only

▪️ Title must match the article headline

▪️ Recent (Past 30 Days)

▪️ No Screenshots/links to other social media sites or link shorteners

Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. One or two small paragraphs are okay.

Rule 3: Articles based on opinion (unless clearly marked and from a serious publication), misinformation or propaganda will be removed.

Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, ableist, will be removed.

Would those who down-vote like to explain their interpretation of:

I have this piece of glass here, but all we have really over here is the fake news, right? And, to get me, somebody would have to shoot through the fake news. And I don’t mind that so much, ’cause I don’t mind. I don’t mind that

Here is his campaign communications director's official statement on this, if you need some inspiration

What the fuck is the communications director sniffing

It is important for us to remember the name "Steven Cheung" and the names of all those who enable and defend this kind of violent rhetoric in an official capacity. Politically motivated violence is the definition of "terrorism".

A rational and moral person would resign instead of write this statement. These people are dangerous, and they won't just vanish if Trump loses on election day.

I mean, to be fair, what would any of us need to be sniffing to do that job?

The job of the Trump campaign manager is actually very easy. Just observe what is going on around the candidate and just say that the opposite is happening.
