    Nice job reaching conclusions that weren't made by anybody. I said haters and attackers, not criticizers. The fact that you fail to see that troublemakers are troublemakers regardless of the cause means you're judgement is slanted to your beliefs. IN that regard you're no different than Trump-ites. Not able to be open minded and think for yourself.

    Think about why I hate Trump yet, I can defends events towards him and his campaign? My mind is open, clear, and fair which means my version of reality is the clearest. My truth, the truest.

    peleincubus had to retreat to his safe space

    He can't even admit the trespassing protesters at the Trump event were looking for trouble.

    bigtexxx, I am curious about something:

    I assume that you disagree with Sanders' economic positions in a similar way as I do.

    But I cannot help feel that he is the most honest, sincere and consistent candidate out there.

    Aside from disagreeing with his economic views, and only judging his character, would you totally disagree with that assessment?

    He is consistent and honest, sure, but I strongly disagree with his positions. Consistency and honesty, taken in isolation, are great things. However, one could argue that Hugo Chavez is also consistent and honest, yet I wouldn't want him running the US.

    I wish you were able to understand that the point you believe you are making, isn't what Sanders is saying at all. He isn't saying that Trump is responsible, just that Trump should be a leader and decry the violence from his supporters rather than encourage it.

    Understood - I just rate him much higher than Hillary when it comes to his personal character. I still rate her much higher than Trump, though.

    He doesn't care. Conservatives are above the law and liberals/blacks are below the law.

    So far there's only one group of supporters who went to another rally and caused violence.

    So you finally admit that Trump supporters are to blame for punching people. I was beginning to think you were hopeless.

    ya'll keep Trump outta the Bernie thread. It's like the difference between FDR and Randy Machoman" Savage... not even in the same universe.

    I think Trump may be reacting to the polls showing that Bernie beats him very badly in a head to head race. Hillary not so much.

    Also, as a billionaire a democratic socialist does make him nervous that he may have to start paying more taxes or higher wages to his employees.

    I would think Trump is worried about winning the Republican nomination above all else...... especially with so many key electoral votes up for grabs tomorrow.

    Sparring with Bernie is germane based on Bernie disciples protesting, and even rushing the podium Trump was in front of.

    Once (or if) Trump gets the nomination wrapped up, he will turn his attention to Clinton/Sanders.

    Thanks for posting that I was looking for the video on youtube to post here but can't find one.

    Hillary yet again, shows that she's full of it.

    Hilary will only be telling the truth when she admits she's a liar.

    Chavez was a strongman who enriched himself and his family in the billions.

    Maybe Bernie is playing the long con but come on now
