Be consistent and denounce ALL incivility…
It matters naught what the shooter was. What does matter is Trump’s divisive rhetoric
which influences people’s conduct.
Not one of these shooters has indicated they were in any way influenced by “Trump’s divisive rhetoric”.
Quote for us the divisive rhetoric that is influencing them and provide links please.
Precisely. And in verbal commentary and written manifesto, many of them are using the same “trigger” phrases that Trump has been espousing.

Yet none of you can provide any evidence that anything Trump has said influenced or inspired any of these shooters.
Are the shooters to indicate who incited their violence? Get real. Trump’s conduct incites violence, the likes of which we have never seen on such a continuing scale as we do now.
You don’t have to be a genius to notice this. And you sure as hell don’t need “quotes”.
A little common sense will do.
His rhetoric will do. We don’t need specific sentences. Just pay attention to his flapping about migrants, people of color, etc. And let’s not forget his history.
Trump can indeed transfer immigration judges to the border.
Trump can certainly come down hard on white supremacists. He just doesn’t want to lose their vote, so he massages them with such statements as “good people on both sides, on both sides”.
Nobody tried to entrap anybody. They FBI went where the evidence led them and found definitive interference by Russia in our election, Trump calls a witch hunt because he wants their help in the next election. He has done nothing about this meddling. In fact he believes the Putin thug over our intelligence agencies.
So in fact you have absolutely no basis for your claim other than your outrage that Trump was elected and still holds office.
Thanks for clearing it up.

Even prior to this surge on the border immigration courts were running a five to seven year backlog. There are no judges to move without dramatically increasing that backlog and he cannot on his own create new courts or judgeships, that requires congress.

How exactly, be specific.

This is a lie, he made absolutely clear he was not speaking of the WN/KKK’ members in Charlottesville.
Most of the people who oppose the tearing down of those statues are not racist and are not in any way affiliated with those groups, they simply oppose ripping out history by it’s roots and hiding it in a closet.
Good people died on both sides of that war and most southnerers didnt’ own slaves and didn’t fight for slavery, they were patriots that went to war to defend their states.
Prior to our civil war there was no real “National Identity”, we were a republic and their first loyalty was to their states.

That’s a lie, Misfud was specifically recruited to entrap members of the campaign and so too was at least one member of the Australian diplomatic core.
They offered evidence unsolicited to members of the campaign who resoundingly and in no uncertain terms rejected it. Those documents were hidden from the FISA courts and only recently were made public.
The entire “Steele Dossier” upon which the justification for the investigation was based was a fabrication put together by the DNC and Hilalry campaign and that was also known to the FBI at the time and hidden from the court.
Our own FBI and and intel agencies lied to the court to prevent his election and continued to do so to bring him down once elected, of course he doubts their credibility.
The former heads of the FBI, DIA, and CIA ran around on cable TV swearing the evidence of treason and other crimes came across their desks and would be revealed by the Mueller report and not a single allegation they made was confirmed in it.
Yes, Russia tried to meddle in our election which they’ve been doing since the fifties and everyone was aware of it.
Not a single vote can be shown to have been changed by anything the Russians did in 2016.
They don’t, they just see things differently than many republicans and there’s been a tug of war between the two views, one which will likely continue well into the future. Americans tend to kick the ball back and forth between both parties.
While that’s certainly true, neither are the right. America is morphing, like it or hate it, it is what it is, and stats suggest that that trend will continue with cultural revolution as the demographics continue to change. And there’s really nothing anyone can do about it
I assume those on the Left haven’t incited any divisiveness with their rhetoric against Trump. They continue to play the race card in attempts to destroy the country’s fabric inciting demented people on both sides.
They haven’t a meaningful solution except to give them more taxpayer money and to compare ICE and CBP with the Gestapo.

Antifa, BLM, OWS all should have long ago been declared terrorist organizations.
Both left and right wing extremist groups are facing off in Portland. Hopefully there will not be any violence.
The right wing is not extremist at all. They stand for the constituton. The communist Antifa is a terrorist organisation that has hijacked the left sponsored by an anti American billionaire, Soros.
