Here's an interesting but disturbing trend I've noticed among died-in-the-wool supporters of a particular candidate. Many of them resort to name-calling, profanity, insults, and even violence when anyone opposes them. This is evident among the ardent Trump supporters now, and it was evident among the ardent Sanders supporters during the primaries. Even some of the Obama diehards were this way in 2008.
It's unnerving but unfortunately a fact of life these days that many of the supporters can't tout their candidate in a civil and productive way. Noooo, their actions have to be tactless and threatening.
On the other hand what can we expect when the nominee himself pushes his way through the campaign with classless bullying tactics?
Hillary called half of Trump supporters deplorable and unredeemable. That's many millions of people and very degrading. I don't consider that classy, obviously it doesn't bother you in the least but what can we expect from a Hillary supporter?
Unfortunately what Hillary said about a good share of Trump supporters is true, they are deplorables. They're usually low-income, low-skilled, and low-educated. They tend to be anti-trade, anti-Wall Street, and anti-corporation. Like I said before, these are the same losers who used to be strong democrats not so long ago.
There's a good amount of uncivil behavior among both sides, the Sanders supporters are notorious for this. Republicans used to be more diplomatic and they adhered to a higher standard but the evidence suggests otherwise this time.
Not that's it's any of your business but I'm only voting for Hillary because she's the lesser of the evils. I don't particularly like her but I see Trump as the worst candidate this time around, and dangerous for the country.
