Most people are sick of pc politicians. He definitely has your attention. So, he must be doing something right.


Actually, it is more like "I can't believe this guy can't pull off at least ONE thing right yet" I mean, even a blind squirrel finds a nut occasionally. Let's see:
- whiffed on "straightening out Obamacare"
- got laughed at by Mexico(!) when he told them to pay for the wall
- still can't find his taxes to show the American people, as promised.
- whiffed on finding any damning dirt on Hillary
- couldn't find a single unconstitutional EO signed by Obama
- was made a laughing stock by a tinpot obese dictator
- has been called "moron" and "crazy" by members of his staff
- never read the Constitution, must have bought his way out of HS civics class
- Had to be taught flag etiquette by his foreign-born wife
- Makes W look intelligent
- Sells out our intelligence services to a foreign government and doesn't even realize they got the best of him
- Looks like a petulant child with the other G7 leaders.
- publicly disrespects American former POWs, when he didn't have the balls to serve

I mean, if he wasn't trashing my country, it might actually be "must see TV". But I simply find myself wishing he would do SOMETHING, ANYTHING not totally self-surving


Good luck with that - he fits the definition of a classic narcissistfrustrated


Everyone who runs for President and especially the ones who win are narcissists.

Librals would assasinate, if they could, their Own POTUS.

They hate what he stands for! They are causing more Havoc everyday.

Who's promoting Violence,. LEFTIST. !



They have. Look at President's Lincoln and JFK... Also look at the members of Congress they have tried to kill and other elected officials.

The Democrats motto, "Support us or get clipped!"

And you clearly remember the hate you were taught at home by your parents and grandparents. Blacks have the same rights as whites. They continue to fail as members of society. They commit the most crimes, have the most illegitimate kids, and have the highest poverty rate. We've had a black president which shows they have the same opportunities as whites. It's time to stop playing the black card they've been taught by generations who lived on welfare and blamed society for their failures.





where have I espoused hate? what makes you assume I was taught to hate anyone or anything? IN fact, the word hate was not allowed in our home, so you may not want to make assumptions that are uninformed. This is not a thread about civil rights or black people. Me thinks it stays on your mind far too much.

This thread, just as a reminder, is about assassination.







This thread isn't about Obama either. The violence under him wss against police and business owners. You brought up lynchings that have nothing to do with what's happening today except for the hate people were taught at home.

Trump is restoring the ability to work hard and be rewarded for it. Tax cuts are clearly creating a better economy. JOBS are plentiful, even for inexperienced people. Democrats are still stuck on welfare for all Champaigns and people who refuse to work are saying corporations are stealing their money. Democrats lively hood is being threatened and they are turning violent. It's dangerous for the ones trying to move them off a check and into a job but it must be done.



you are correct. It is relevant as a response to someone espousing the 'looney left' with assassination attempts, in the fact that there were assassination threats against a democratic POTUS. My family and blacks still had no RELEVANCE to the discussion.

lynchings were relevant as well to point out the silliness of trying to assign 'violence' to a particular party or philosophy.

Nothing is much different under Trump than any other, but the spin always goes to the person being supported by their supporter., words like 'restoring' 'better' , 'refuse', are all emotionally biased descriptions that are entirely subjective and not easy to back up with fact.

Democrats are not 'turning' violent anymore than republicans are. they have both ALWAYS had violent among them. That is the fact of the matter. The world is not revolving around either people who are stuck on welfare, or people who are obsessed over the idea of welfare for others. There are MANY other things that motivate people during these or any other times, contrary to popular belief.


How many Republican supporters were arrested the past couple of weeks? Welfare and open borders is the campaign of democrats. I agree they need to come up with something new. Even members of their own party say it's not going to get the elected. I don't think they are obsessed. I just think they have nothing else since Trump is making so much progress in all areas.



I dont know. How about some who are threatening Professor Ford? lol. It will never be as one sided as the finger pointers love to portray it.

Welfare is only an issue to those who are obsessed with it, Democrats run on MANY things, but those who are so panties in a bunch over welfare seem to obsess on just that ONE issue. I think THEY are the ones who need something new.





Other than abolish ice, what issues are democrats campaigning on besides welfare? I've heard members of their own party say it. I'll wait. :sleeping:


party's dont 'say', people do.

But people from both parties run on many different issues, like healthcare, education, economy, security, global relations, domestic relations, et cetera.




Are they going to give another county nuclear technology? Several million $$? What is their plan on better education? I'm sick of filling out forms every year asking me if my child can speak English. They want to abolish ice and give welfare to illegals. This has been dumbing down our future generations for years. The focus is on getting the bottom feeders to speak English instead of helping American kids thrive in technology and business. What are they doing to improve domestic relations? Another smear campaign on the horizon? Healthcare? Oh yeah, welfare for all. Security? Abolish ICE. Economy? Do nothing to end the trade deficits. Just more welfare for all.

MEMBERS OF THEIR OWN PARTY ADMIT THEY BETTER GET FOCUSED ON ISSUES INSTEAD OF TRUMP BASHING.


just as Members of the republican party 'admit' they better get focused on issues instead of inciting division and bigotry.

It falls under everyone having an opinion, never has changed, and its not divided by a party line or a political philosophy. Everyone can look in the mirror and make some improvements.




What issues is the Republican party not taking on? Trump isn't afraid of taking crap for doing what he knows is right. He said pretend he is on the ballot in the midterm to keep Democrats from block him every chance they get. After the smear campaign that we just saw, republicans are fired up. I checked my voter statue before it was too late to register. Did democrats? Because if they were focused on issues, they would have done the same. Are democrats really in favor of abolishing ICE? It doesn't seem like it. Do they really want illegals getting welfare from a system they haven't paid into? We will see in November.

Purging voter registry was on the news in plenty of time for anyone who wanted to vote to reregister. Democrats are already gathering their excuse for losing. Anybody that doesn't have an id needs get one today.

I know this is a little off topic. But it's such as this that's pissing off people here in Ga. Because the guy is trying to get away with voter suppression. Stuff like this is turning more and more people against Republicans.

Over half the country doesn't like Trump. And acting "Trump-like", is not a good idea.


Report: Georgia's Secretary of State Is Blocking 53,000 Voter Registrations as He Runs for Governor

In Part,

"She tried re-registering, but with about one month left before a November election that will decide a governor’s race and some competitive U.S. House races, Appling-Nunez’s application is one of over 53,000 sitting on hold with Georgia Secretary of State Brian Kemp’s office. And unlike Appling-Nunez, many people on that list — which is predominantly black, according to an analysis by The Associated Press — may not even know their voter registration has been held up".

http://time.com/5421332/georgia-brian-kemp-secretary-of-state-53000-voters-governor/

Stuff like this feeds into the growing amount of people who don't like Trump or the Republican party. Stuff like this makes them look like they are desperate and will do anything, including voter suppression to get there way. If you think you can't win, CHEAT!





Over half the country didn't like Obama and your point is?

I found that article an interesting read. A closet Marxist, is a pretty good view of obama. hillary was an Alinski convert. They both were following the Marxist takeover playbook.

Chicago has had it's share of violence during obama's tenure. Why didn't he do something about it?


why didnt any other politician? do state senators usually decrease violence in the inner cities somehow?




Because the President has MANY options to handle such a situation.

I heard nothing from them in 2016. Beheadings, probably since before then. I think exaggeration is a very big skill of Trump and his supporters.

record time, sure, but MORE? 30 percent is STILL not more than 70 percent.

I can believe Trump eased the rules, after all he 'loves war'. I cant agree that is something to be tauted just because of its speedy results with ISIS deaths, when it came at increased civilian deaths as well. I dont see it as bad to take global relations and civilian deaths into consideration when forming military strategy. Even if it means the same result, but in a longer time, with less collateral damage.


Really?.. who was president when these folks got their heads chopped off
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISIL_beheading_incidents

you and a few others just can't say Trump did anything good.. just can't get those words out of your mouths Lol

Its been a long year and 1/2... for you guys






What has that to do with claiming Trump eradicated ISIS? ISIS beheadings were put forth as an example but they had stopped, even according to your source, by 2016 , WHEN OBAMA WAS STILL PRESIDENT.


I can say the good Trump has done has been continuing some of the good things OBAMA had already began.


But to aknowledge both of them is unheard of with his cult, its all and only because of how great and wonderful he is .... NOT.




Another lie. The last one was in 2017.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mohsen_Hojaji



haaa, so under TRUMP? Again, making my point about him ending them and Obama doing nothing.





What did Obama do? He let them kill an Ambassador and destroy an Embassy (The Iranians didn't even kill diplomatic staff), reduced troop sizes in "The Box", embolden the terrorists by promising to close G-Bay and end enhanced interrogations, eliminate black sites, reduce the amount of black missions we ran, tied the hands of the CIA and couldn't make a decision (proven by the Osama raid that took weeks for him to decide what to do pissing off the intelligence officers working the case and eventually settling it by asking his cabinet members what he should do and went with the majority decision. BTW Hillary and Biden said no the raid which the rest of the cabinet voted yet). Even his Defense Secretary and CIA director Panetta didn't agree with him half the time.

He was a $hitty President that had Al Qaeda and ISIS terror attacks happen inside the US borders.... How many have happened in the US since President Trump took office? NONE!


SMH

look it up, they have also happened under precious TRUMP. Presidents do not 'let them happen' anymore than they let happen all the DOMESTIC violence inside their borders. But people will reach for anything they can when pointing fingers of 'blame'.





Really? What ambassador has been killed under Trump? What embassy was over run by militants? What Fort Hood style terrorist attack has happened in the US? NONE.

The violence I remember has always been a part of US culture. Lynchings, cross burnings, public hangings, executions, police beatings and brutality, political assassinations ...lol .. under OBAMA... seriously?

riots have happened under EVERY president, for anything from something trivial like sports scores, or something major like a dead teen.





When was the last time there was a lynching or cross burning? Remember the Democrats founded the KKK.

PEOPLE fuel hatred, not the 'left' or the 'right'. not democrats or republicans.

Lets not forget the elevated threats on the President when OBAMA was in office, I doubt that was 'the left' or 'the democrats'

lets not forget #45 admiringly remanaissing about how protestors used to be 'carried out on stretchers' or how protesters should be punched in the mouth or how two men who beat a mexican for being mexican were 'passionate' supporters.

As long as both sides continue to only see what the other side does, neither side will correct their OWN behavior, which is all anyone can be in control of, and nothing will change.



I don't remember the Republican party calling for violence against Obama.....

Also the dumb son of a b***h couldn't wait to go on TV and identify the unit that killed Osama.


" The award "is the highest such honor that can be given to a unit," the White House said in a statement, and was "in recognition of their extraordinary service and achievement."

The Navy SEAL who shot bin Laden was among those present, but he was never singled out or identified, a U.S. official told NBC News. Other sources say that is common practice among SEALs who focus on the team, not individuals."

http://www.nbcnews.com/id/42919214/ns/world_news-death_of_bin_laden/t/obama-thanks-awards-team-bin-laden-raid/

Half-truth here. Mostly False.

Then to make matters worse he allowed a couple of Hollywood Producers and Weinstein unrestricted access so they would make a movie



"Obama announced the death of bin Laden on May 1, 2011. Less than three weeks later, Boal met with two people at the CIA, the chief of staff and the director of public affairs. We know this, and many other details of Boal’s dealings with Washington insiders, thanks to a Freedom of Information Act request by Judicial Watch, a conservative organization that often sues to get access to government documents. "

http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2012/aug/20/special-operations-opsec-education-fund/group-says-obama-revealed-secret-information-holl/



Hillary and Biden said no the raid which the rest of the cabinet voted yet.



Biden Says He Didn’t Oppose Raid That Killed Bin Laden]

In part,

"But by January 2013, Mr. Biden had begun hedging on whether he had opposed the raid.

“I remember walking up to his office and saying: ‘Look, follow your instincts. Follow your instincts,’ ” he said in a January 2013 interview.

When asked specifically whether he had advised against the raid, Mr. Biden said: “Let me put it this way: My advice was, follow your instincts, knowing what his instinct was.”

On Tuesday, Mr. Biden’s evolution continued. Before an audience at George Washington University, Mr. Biden said he never gave Mr. Obama definitive advice on controversial issues in front of other officials, mindful that he did not want the rest of the team to see a difference between his opinion and that of the president. With others around them, Mr. Biden said he suggested one more pass over the Abbottabad compound with an unmanned aerial vehicle or drone.

After the meeting in the Situation Room, though, Mr. Biden said he privately gave the president his real view. “As we walked out of the room and went upstairs, I told him my opinion, that I said that I thought he should go but to follow his own instincts,” Mr. Biden said Tuesday".

Clinton,

http://www.politico.com/story/2016/01/hillary-clinton-2016-bin-laden-raid-217637














In May 2011, Vice President Joe Biden was in the White House Situation Room, joining President Barack Obama and his top national security officials for a crucial meeting. The question on the table: whether to order a dangerous Special Forces raid to take out Osama bin Laden.

Intelligence experts believed they had located bin Laden in a Pakistan compound, but they weren’t certain, and the risks of failure were high. After most officials present urged Obama to go for it, the president turned to Biden: “Joe, what do you think?” he asked, according to an account Biden gave months later.

“Mr. President, my suggestion is don’t go,” Biden said.
Obama, of course, ignored his deputy’s advice and dispatched Navy SEAL Team 6 to kill the Al Qaeda leader. It was a historic triumph for America — not to mention a political bonanza for a president facing reelection, perhaps the most consequential decision of Obama’s presidency.
And Joe Biden was on the wrong side of it.

Biden’s bin Laden call may haunt him as he considers taking on Hillary Clinton for the 2016 Democratic nomination, in a fight that will hinge in part on who’s better equipped to be commander in chief. As Clinton likes to remind audiences, she advised Obama to take the gamble. “I respected [Biden’s] concerns about the risk of a raid,” she wrote in her 2014 memoir, “Hard Choices,” “but I came to the conclusion that the intelligence was convincing and that the risks were outweighed by the benefits of success.”

“She can very easily point to the bin Laden operation,” says a former Obama White House official. “The value in it is that it’s so simple and so easy to understand: I was for it, and you were against it.”

A student of foreign policy since the 1970s, Biden prides himself on his judgment about world affairs. That makes him particularly sensitive to criticism that he’s flubbed several big calls on world affairs over the years. Biden has been “wrong on nearly every major foreign policy and national security issue over the past four decades,” Obama’s first defense secretary, Robert Gates, declared last year.

While stung by such talk, Biden also considers it unfair — particularly after recent events in places like Iraq, Libya and Afghanistan have arguably matched his predictions.

“He took a lot of heat,” says a former Biden aide. “But I think the last two years have certainly left him feeling vindicated.”
Biden may see an edge over Clinton among liberal Democratic primary voters. During their tenure in the Obama administration, he frequently took a more dovish line than his ex-colleague. The two split over the 2011 U.S. withdrawal from Iraq, troop levels in Afghanistan, arming Syria’s rebels, and bombing Libya. In each case, Clinton backed the stronger military option while Biden counseled caution and a lighter U.S. footprint abroad.

Libya could be particularly awkward for Clinton. As secretary of state she threw her weight behind the 2011 U.S. and European air campaign to depose Muammar Qadhafi. Biden opposed that intervention, which even Obama has suggested was ill-advised now that the north African country has fallen to anarchy and terrorism.

Biden also feels that he was right to warn early in Obama’s presidency that the U.S. should trim its ambitions in Afghanistan. In the fall of 2009, Clinton sided with the military’s call for another 30,000 troops, while Biden argued for a much lighter presence. Special Forces and armed drones could keep Al Qaeda at bay, he said, arguing that grander ambitions of rebuilding the country were unrealistic. Obama sided with Clinton’s view, but experts are mixed at best on whether doubling down on the country — at a high cost in lives and money — had much impact.

Biden might also point to his proposal, floated when he was a senator in 2007, for a “soft partition” of Iraq into three semi-autonomous regions — each one majority Shiite, Sunni or Kurdish — under the control of a weak central government. Many foreign policy experts scoffed at the idea back then.

Today, Baghdad’s inability to unite and control the country has bred new talk in Washington that a unified Iraq may be unsalvageable after all. That has led Biden to say, as one aide put it: “You all mocked me, and look who’s laughing now.”

Iraq is far from a neat issue for Biden, however. Obama assigned him the Iraq account at the start of his presidency, and Biden managed the country’s internal politics as the U.S. withdrew its troops — a withdrawal that Biden supported. (Clinton pushed for keeping a modest military presence in the country.)

The rise of the Islamic State and the return of more than 3,000 U.S. troops to the country over the past year will make it hard for Biden to boast on that front.

“He went along with our departure too easily,” says Michael O’Hanlon, an Iraq expert at the Brookings Institution, who also faulted Biden for strongly backing Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, who turned out to be a sectarian strongman.

Fortunately for Biden, Clinton has her own vulnerabilities on Iraq. She supported the Iraq War, as did Biden. (Clinton and Biden both opposed George W. Bush’s troop surge.) And Clinton played little role as the country’s politics frayed — visiting Baghdad only once in her four-year tenure as secretary of state.

While no one has a spotless track record on complex foreign issues, some Biden backers argued, the vice president’s experience is unrivaled.
“The in-depth knowledge of international relations, and his personal acquaintance with leading world figures is just of a different magnitude of anybody else,” says Michael Haltzel, a senior foreign policy adviser to Biden when he chaired the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. “Nobody bats a thousand.”

Biden himself cited the depth of his experience when he ran against Clinton and Obama in the 2008 primaries, pointing back as far as a 1979 delegation of senators he led to Russia to help negotiate the START nuclear arms control agreement.

While Clinton “was meeting socially with the prime minister of a country,” Biden said at the time, “I was sitting down and negotiating with them. I know my experience is considerably deeper and more relevant.”

That will be a tougher argument to sustain now that Clinton has logged four years as America’s top diplomat. And several sources questioned whether foreign policy really would be central to a Biden-Clinton battle.
“I think his argument is more likely to be that all his life he’s been fighting for the middle class, and here’s what he wants to do now,” said Robert Shrum, a former top consultant to several Democratic presidential candidates.

Both Biden and Clinton might also be wary of rehashing administration foreign policy debates in a way that could pit them against Obama’s policies.

Obama “will absolutely be collateral damage if they start attacking each other,” says the former White House official. “It won’t be a huge problem for him, but it will certainly be annoying.”

Also unclear is how much Democratic voters might hold Biden’s bin Laden decision against him. Backing the raid was hardly a no-brainer: Most Obama officials were equivocal about the decision, which they considered a calculated risk. Gates, for one, initially advised against it.

By various accounts, Biden was worried about the political fallout to Obama if the raid failed, as well as blowback from Pakistan, a nominal U.S. ally infuriated by the unannounced incursion of U.S. troops across its border.

“He was not against killing bin Laden in principle,” added Shrum. “He wasn’t sure the raid would work. Nor was the president when he ordered it.”

The media is fueling a lot of anger. The liberal spin is making bottom feeders believe the are owed a living. I'm watch CNN right now and they are saying tax cuts took away healthcare. Republicans are against socialism and support hard work. Democrat supporters are getting Desparate to stop republicans.

I've noticed at work that the ones who complain they need money, are the first ones to volunteer to go home when things get slow and never volunteer for ot. These types love socialism. The ones volunteering for ot are the ones who don't need the money. Just want a better life.



We've already had two assassination attacks. One against Congressman Scalise and one against Senator Paul. All because the Looney Left is fueling the hatred and anger.

Following the bitterly partisan, acrimonious confirmation battle over Associate Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh, Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., warned in an interview on Tuesday that heated political rhetoric has the potential to turn deadly.

"I fear that there's going to be an assassination," Paul told a Kentucky radio show. "I really worry that somebody is going to be killed, and that those who are ratcheting up the conversation ... they have to realize they bear some responsibility if this elevates to violence."

Paul's comments came the same day former presidential candidate Hillary Clinton declared that Democrats "cannot be civil" with Republicans any longer.

Paul's wife, Kelley, revealed in a Breitbart News interview on Friday that she sleeps with a "loaded gun by my bed," has updated her home's security system and has "deadbolts all around my house." Kelley also wrote an op-ed published by CNN in which she called on Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J., to tone down his rhetoric; in June, Booker suggested his supporters “get up in the face of congresspeople.”

The Kentucky senator reiterated his wife's criticism on Tuesday. "When people like Cory Booker say get up in their face ... What he doesn't realize is that for every 1,000 persons who want to get up in your face, one of them is going to be unstable enough to commit violence," Paul said.

Last week, Paul was chased and verbally harassed by anti-Kavanaugh activists at Washington's Reagan National Airport. And last fall, Paul was attacked and beaten in his yard in Kentucky by his neighbor -- an episode that a Kentucky Democrat joked about earlier this year.

Paul was attending the congressional baseball practice last summer when a gunman opened fire, hitting House Majority Whip Steve Scalise, R-La., in the hip and injuring two Capitol police officers and an aide. The episode was very nearly a "massacre," lawmakers said.

"When I was at the ballfield and Steve Scalise was nearly killed, the guy shooting up the ballfield, and shooting I think five or six people, he was yelling, 'This is for health care,'" Paul told host Leland Conway on Tuesday. "When I was attacked in my yard and had six of my ribs broken, and pneumonia, lung contusion, all that -- these are people that are unstable, we don't want to encourage them."

REPUBLICAN SENATOR RECEIVES GRAPHIC TEXT MESSAGE OF BEHEADING, SEES PERSONAL INFORMATION LEAKED AFTER 'YES' VOTE ON KAVANAUGH
The uncorroborated sexual assault accusations against Kavanaguh, Paul said, didn't justify keeping him off the Supreme Court, much less the partisan rancor surrounding his confirmation. (Paul, who was initially skeptical about Kavanaugh's constitutional views on privacy, ultimately became one of the 51 senators who supported his confirmation.)

"We don't want this to be the standard, that anyone can accuse anybody of anything," he continued. "That would sort of be the standard they had in Venice in the 15th century, when people would put their complaints into the mouth of the lion .... And you'd put your complaint in, and people would lose their head over that."

Paul then echoed President Trump's comments at a ceremonial swearing-in for Kavanaugh in the East Room on Monday evening, as well as dramatic remarks by Maine moderate Republican Sen. Susan Collins last week. The president apologized to Kavanaugh "on behalf of our nation" and, before thanking Collins, emphasized that "in our country, a man or a woman must always be presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty."

"You are presumed to be innocent," Paul agreed. "I just feel really sorry for Kavanaugh and his wife and his children for having to go through that."
Hundreds of protesters have been arrested by Capitol Police in the past three weeks, with some briefly staying in jail. Kavanaugh, his family, his accusers and lawmakers all received death threats.

Protests outside the Supreme Court on Tuesday, the first day Kavanaugh publicly sat on the bench for oral arguments, were relatively sparse. On Saturday, when Kavanaugh was formally sworn in, demonstrators outside banged on the Supreme Court's doors and attempted to claw their way inside.

And a teacher in Minnesota announced she had resigned this week after asking on Twitter, "So whose gonna take one for the team and kill Kavanaugh?" Supreme Court justices receive protection from the Supreme Court Police and the U.S. Marshals Service while in Washington, D.C., although they must ordinarily request protection on domestic or international trips outside that metropolitan area.

On Tuesday, President Trump suggested some of the demonstraters in the nation's capital were paid to protest, and were angry primarily because "they haven't gotten their checks." Some of the anti-Kavanaugh protesters who accosted senators on Capitol Hill have ties to liberal billionaire George Soros.

A 27-year-old Democratic congressional intern was arrested last week and accused of posting the personal information of at least one Republican senator during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on Kavanaugh. The intern, who has since been fired, was denied bail on Tuesday.

Also speaking in a radio interview on Tuesday, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said he was proud of his Republican colleagues for standing up to what he called "mob tactics" during the Kavanaugh confirmation battle.

McConnell also said that he would have no problem appointing a conservative justice in the run-up to the 2020 presidential election if Associate Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg were to retire from the bench. He distinguished that hypothetical from the situation with failed Obama nominee Merrick Garland in 2016 because at that time, different parties controlled the White House and the Senate.

"It will depend largely if the Senate is in Republican hands or Democratic hands," McConnell said, saying it is exceedingly rare for a lame-duck president whose party does not control the Senate to nominate a Supreme Court justice.

The GOP is currently favored to retain control of the Senate after November's midterm elections, buoyed in part by a newly energized base after the Kavanaugh fight.

"This has been like a shot of adrenaline to Republican voters who probably were not as interested or energized in an off-year election with the president not on the ballot," McConnell said. "I think they overplayed their hand. I think the tactics turned off people and turned on our base."

Just over a year ago, House Majority Whip Steve Scalise, R-La., returned to Congress after being shot by a crazed gunman during a congressional Republican baseball practice. His ordeal marked a low in our nation’s political discourse – one that blew past hostile rhetoric into outright violence.

On Sunday former Attorney General Eric Holder doubled down on what has become the left’s new normal. Speaking at a campaign event in Georgia, he said of Republicans: “When they go low, we kick ‘em. That’s what this new Democratic Party is about.”

Holder’s audience, unfortunately, was receptive, chanting “fight” instead of challenging him on his damaging rhetoric.

On Tuesday, Hillary Clinton said in a CNN interview that “you cannot be civil with a political party that wants to destroy what you stand for, what you care about.” Speaking as a bitter and sore loser, she said a prerequisite to civility would be Democrats winning back majorities in Congress this year.

Time and again, those on the left have shown the American people that they do not intend to reverse course and close the ever-widening divide between Americans. Their hatred for President Trump has caused them to dig in their heels, dehumanize Republicans and encourage harassment against those who disagree with them. In doing so, they have brought about the death of civility.

The people who were shot on that baseball field in 2017 witnessed this firsthand. So did Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., who was assaulted from behind last November by a neighbor who broke his ribs and damaged his lungs.
Senseless acts like these will likely continue, which makes it more important than ever for Democrats to forcefully condemn the culture their own rhetoric has created.

Instead, the top ranks of the Democratic Party continue to sow division.
In June, Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., told supporters to harass Trump administration officials and “tell them they’re not welcome anymore, anywhere.”

In July, Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J. – presumably a future presidential candidate –encouraged activists to “get up in the face of some congresspeople.”

White House press secretary Sarah Sanders was driven out of a restaurant for her political beliefs. So was Kirstjen Nielsen, secretary of the Department of Homeland Security. Most recently, it was Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas.

And then there was the all-out character assassination campaign against Supreme Court nominee and now-Justice Brett Kavanaugh. The campaign was waged by Senate Democrats, their media allies and angry mobs intent on destroying a good man’s life.

When their campaign failed, liberal mobs resorted to pounding on the doors of the Supreme Court and continuing their disruptive tantrums.
As Republicans, we believe in treating every American with respect and dignity. We believe political differences are not an excuse for bad behavior.

We do not “kick” those with whom we disagree. Instead, we work hard to win elections and support President Trump’s agenda – one that reflects the same respect for opportunity and liberty for all.

During the Sunday campaign event, Holder encouraged Democratic activists “to be as tough as they (Republicans) are, to be as dedicated as they are, to be as committed as they are.”

Holder is right about one thing – Republicans are indeed tough, dedicated and committed.

We are tough in the face of adversity. We are dedicated to making life better for the American people. We are committed to lifting up every single community.

The results since President Trump took office speak for themselves: record low unemployment, the largest set of tax cuts in a generation, rapid deregulation and unprecedented economic growth.

The Republican Party will continue to fight for what matters most: a brighter future for our nation. And we will do so undeterred by attacks from the left. That is how we win.
