Breitbart recommends Congress censure Obama for the Hiroshima speech.

I initially typed Trump instead of Breitbart, a Freudian slip. Seeing the photo above, I have always felt Trump reminded me a lot of Patton. That is the one thing I worry about now that he is the nominee apparent, he may suffer Patton's same fate. The violence at his rallies, has not calmed those fears one bit.
Has there been an incident of Trump supporters getting violent? The only incidents I'm aware of was the opposition getting violent. :headscratch
Yes, those are the people I am worried about.
I'm still confused. How does the violent actions of people who are against Trump reflect poorly on Trump?

FYI, I'm not defending anyone. I'm just trying to wrap my head around what it appears you said above. I know the media tried to blame the violence on Trump, but I don't understand how any thinking person can believe that. :tiphat:

EDIT: Nevermind. I guess I was reading wrong. Now I understand that you were stating the violence of the opposition makes you think that someone may try to do away with Trump. Sometimes I can be pretty dense. :banghead:
Yes, the Trump opposition is who I am concerned about. There is a general opinion by the Democrats that Trump would be the worst president that the United States has ever had. (As opposed to the current president, who they consider the best president we have ever had) I don't remember the last time we had violence on the campaign trail and Trump is still not even the nominee. Well I do now. It was Robert Kennedy.

You are right the press makes it out as if his supporters are being violent, which is not the case. Their headlines are not "Democratic violence at a Trump rally", but instead "violence at a Trump rally".

Breitbart goes all in against Obama and his Hiroshima speech.

So does the Daily Wire.

Or they could do what they do (or, at least, did) in Germany. When a crowd gets out of hand,they bring in fire trucks and turn the hoses on them. They also add a something to the water that irritates the eyes and sinuses.
Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence. - John Adams
