Here ... I'm sorry I pointed out too many facts and too much reasonable evidence in response to the hero of so many here ..

What FACTS ?

All i saw were OPINION trying to be passed off as 'fact'.

If you think that about conspiracy theories, what are you doing on ATS?

Your feeble attempt at censoring me and mod wanna be attitude is so apparent as to be regulated to the funny bin Mr Sock Puppet.

Any ideas?

So I would not say that Trump himself is dangerous, but I would say that his message and the message of the people that support him are, because it creates an atmosphere and mindset that could lead to bloodshed and persecution.

In other words:

You oppose Trump for creating an atmosphere and mindset that could lead to bloodshed and persecution because he openly opposes groups with causes that create atmospheres and mindsets that could lead to bloodshed and persecution.

I don't understand half the things you just said, but why would I want to censor you, when your posts give me a ton of laugh. So, keep up!

Actually I'm concerned about it too. I hope he doesn't say/do things that could get people killed, even in other countries.
And he could. I hope he will have advisors that will help him be more cautious with his language.

a reply to: angeldoll

Don't worry, he's not going to do that.

Al ough, I can't say the same thing for Hillary unfortunately. Maybe she will repeat her old motto: " we came, we saw, he died with her insane laugh...

How does being gay, Muslim or socialist cause bloodshed or persecution?

Well, yeah...I felt that way about Bush and Obama, too.

They both could and they both did.

Same applies to Hillary, she did and she still could.

Just ask for a safe place, from us the nazi followers of our nazi leader Donald Trump.

Without a doubt, I admit I am shallow in making the following statement. But as first daughters go, I'd rather look at Ivanka for the next four years rather than Chelsea.

It's not just Trump you have to worry about. It's also those that support him. Trump is just the one who speaks using propaganda that appeals to Right Wing authoritarian, ultra-nationalist fascists.

His supporters ARE Right Wing authoritarian, ultra-nationalist fascists.

1. The party is anti-gay rights, not Trump.

2. Trump actually has a record supporting universal healthcare (based on Canada's system) and he once proposed a one-time tax on the wealthiest Americans that would pay off the national debt in a year. So I am not convinced he is anti-socialist. Plus, he married two women with socialist/communist backgrounds. He must have a healthy amount of tolerance for socialism.

3. Lastly, you said "COULD lead to bloodshed and persecution." Obviously radical Islam COULD and has led bloodshed and persecution.

Does that mean I fully agree with Trump on his position? No. But, I think if he made the task of ensuring innocent Muslims were not persecuted in weeding out terrorism central to his policy, I might be ok with his position. The problem is, Trump is crass about stating his positions. I think it's intentional, but whatever...I won't get on board with him if he cannot state his positions with diplomacy.

Sorry...but that is pretty shallow.
Chelsea seems to be a very nice woman...Hopefully, she takes more after her father.

A small portion are just as a small portion of Muslims are terrorists.

a reply to: MotherMayEye

Just my thoughts,

If you are comparing extreme terrorist percentage to Muslims over all...its a lot lower of a percentage than Right Wing authoritarian, ultra-nationalist fascists percentage to Trump supporters over all.
