Silencing the opposition is something Donny's pals over in Moscow are very familiar with.

So much so that a lot of Russian journalists saw disturbing things at his "press conference":

"Congratulations, US media! You've just covered your first press conference of an authoritarian leader with a massive ego and a deep disdain for your trade and everything you hold dear. We, in Russia, have been doing it for 12 years now— with a short hiatus when our leader wasn’t technically our leader — so quite a few things during Donald Trump's press conference rang my bells." - Alexey Kovalev, "A message to my doomed colleagues in the American media"

Well, it's a marvelous night for a Moondance

A fantabulous night to make romance

And all the leaves on the trees are falling
To the sound of the breezes that blow...

rtpoe, I know, I know. This is a spot the non-liberals are blind to see. They are too biased to altright to be critical anymore. Everywhere where right populists or leaders closer to nazism than democracy have a sole reign, due to silenced opposition.
Anti-social behaviours lack consideration for the well-being of others. Any types of conduct that violates basic rights (human rights is one of them) of another person. It can show as covert or overt hostility.

you forgot one thing. Who did all the time tell that Obama is not a US american citizen? Who gave him the chance? Mr. Trumpel didn't gave him the chance from day 1 he was the most prominent to tell this fake news about Obama not an US citizen, spreading doubts all the time.

So Mr. Trumpel deserves ZERO chances. He has forfeit any chance years ago with his condemn against Obama. It's an inevitable simple fact that it has to be accepted that Trumpel is a faker. The only chance he should get is inprisonment.

And you have to accept that I for example wouldn't have any problem with other GOP presidents. Eg. Carly Fiorina would have been a good president.

Agree 100%. He doesn't deserve a chance. If he hadn't spent the last administration being a braying jackass, sure, maybe. But he did.

If the President-Elect had given any sign or any indication that he was aware of just how slim his margin of "victory" was, had made any effort to reach out to the many millions of people who voted against him, had shown even the least sign of humility at the awesome responsibilities awaiting him, then I might be willing to give him the benefit of the doubt.

And no, just because I'm a little to the left of center (which automatically makes me a LIBRUL in the minds of many), it doesn't mean I support violence at the Inauguration.

Something else for you Trump supporters to consider. One of the many duties of the President is to give words of comfort and solace in times of national tragedy. Witness, for example, President Obama's eulogy for the Rev. Clementa Pinckney during funeral services in Charleston, SC after the shooting there. Try to imagine Trump doing the same thing..........

Oh yes. Silencing the opposition with all might and force is all the altright can do. That's my problem with the altright.

You mentioned before that you do not live in the US right?

Well heres an FYI, it has actually been the radical left that has been, for the past 8 years, trying to bully and silence any opposition. Strong arming their ideology upon everyone. It has been a "my way or the highway" by the left.

To paraphase a famous quote, the left pretty much first ignored opposition, then laughed at it, then demonized it, then fought the opposition, then the opposition finally won.... which is what happened.

And what does the "alt right" even mean? Is that little buzz word that Hillary gave shine to even real?

Still waiting for that press conference by OBAMA on the Chicago kidd-napping. Would that event only by a national tragedy if it were a black victim? I can imagine just fine Trump giving a eulogy at the funerals of the cops killed in Dallas and Baton Rouge.

Good riddance Joe Bidden! Cant believe this POS Biden won a Medal of anything. Watch his inappropriate actions HERE. The caption at the end most likely isnt real, but i mean.....
Imagine if Obama, Kamala, or Biden survived two assassination attempts and the media not publicly destroying the reputation of everyone who issued even the most mild criticism of them and then just dropping the story completely.

Yeah, I cannot either.

Keep up the McCarthyism 2.0, you're only giving yourself 4 more years of Trump like how the right-wing hate gave us 4 more years of Obama.

That was before he declared Venezuela and Cuba national threats that "support terrorism" and began bombing in countries like Yemen and Somalia for terrorist groups created years after 9/11....for being part of 9/11.

Face it, Obama is W. Bush 2.0!

How the alright acts now it is a form of Nazism. Not against Jew's anymore, but now against people of all other nations and religion they don't understand and hate. Clu Clux Clan, white premacy etc. and all people that applaud them, don't tell they are not accepting their support and they should shove their racism and hate up their asses and go to hell. That's the altright for me. Eg. in Hungary illegal militia- Nazi hordes hunting refugees down beating them up on the southern boarders and the Hungarian government applaud them or not even tell them to stop immediately and imprison them for the illegal activities. So who support this is on the same level as the Nazis. And since they call themselves alright it means nothing else that they are Nazis. Alright = Nazism. The circle closes. It is so close not even a sheet of paper fits between them.

Oh yes, McCarthyism 3.0 is already in progress by Trumpel against China. Really brilliant leadership ... some people would call it idiocracy, I don't know why ...

Actually, StrikezOne, I can imagine what Donald's words of comfort and solace in times of tragedy might be.

Interviewed on the day of 9/11, when he was at his building at 40 Wall Street (and not in New Jersey watching imaginary celebrations), by WWOR-TV, he took the opportunity to mention that he now had the tallest building in "downtown Manhattan":



And if there ever were a time to be humble and gracious, wouldn't it have to have been at his father's funeral?

Trump bragged about himself and his many projects, turning it into a show about himself (see The Trumps: Three Generations of Builders and a Presidential Candidate by Gwenda Blair, p. 455).

Was that how you really took statement? I think you mightve taken it out of context just a little bit. I actually was pretty upset at Trumps praise of Larry Silverstein in that interview. But Trump also mentions that he cannot believe planes brought down those buildings and mentioned the possibilities of bombs. And he said not too long ago that he would like to reopen a full investigation on 9/11. Sounds good to me.

Im not so sure, but I think I have heard that his relationship with his father wasnt so great. I think people can also misinterpret the way he was speaking at the funeral as well but at the end of the day I guess I cannot really defend that. Are you happy?
