Yeah, this was pretty low of Trump.
If he's smart, he'll apologize.

The only candidate worse was Ted Cruz. I guess we dodged a bullet there?
Nothing that I said about Trump is without basis which is far more than I can say for his spurious attack on the judge.
Trump has conducted backroom deals to abuse eminent domain. Trump has donated to the campaigns of zoning officials who have ruled in his favor. Trump has employed a self-proclaimed "political dirty-trickster" for decades to be his full time lobbyist.
Trump has sued a paper because their Pulitzer winning architectural critic called his planned building an eye sore ($500 million). He sued an author for underestimating his wealth ($5 billion). He sued Bill Maher for satirizing him ($5 million). He sued Ivana for talking. He sued New York for allowing a betting game into bars that might compete with the casino interests he then had. He sued New York City because he said a tax assessment scandal caused him to sell 72 apartments at below his estimated value ($500 million). He sued Scotland for building a wind farm that he was assured wouldn't be built.
He sued Julius and Edmond Trump for having the AUDACITY to use their own last name in their business name.
He's been involved in multiple scams, not just Trump University. Ever heard of ACN? It's a multi-level marketing pyramid scam where the people make money by convincing other suckers to fork over $500 (and up) for the "opportunity" to... get other suckers to shell out $500 for the "opportunity" to get other suckers to shell out $500 and so on and so forth.
"One of the things I'm going to do if I win, and I hope we do and we're certainly leading. I'm going to open up our libel laws so when they write purposely negative and horrible and false articles, we can sue them and win lots of money. We're going to open up those libel laws. So when The New York Times writes a hit piece which is a total disgrace or when The Washington Post, which is there for other reasons, writes a hit piece, we can sue them and win money instead of having no chance of winning because they're totally protected," Trump said.

If you think our (currently) great nation is headed in the wrong direction, is this the direction you think it should be heading? Is this what "unity" looks like to you?
you were one of the people flailing about the supposed Pro Trump violence, but I've yet to see you the least bit outraged at the Rio violence that seems to be happening daily from Anti Trump rioters. Where are your convictions?

Props to you for being a person of actual convictions. I disagree with you all the time but at least you call it like you see it.

Why is everyone quiet on his attack on free speech?
