And who would know unrestrained demagoguery better than a Trump supporter?

>> Of the remaining Republican candidates still standing, which of them do you (or does ANYONE) think has the BEST chance of beating Hillary <<

Every bit of hard data indicates that Kasich would run best against Hilary, Rubio next, and Cruz the least well.

But the data also indicate that any one of them could beat her — whereas Trump would be crushed by the negative advertising campaign the Dhims are bound to run against him.

We are not at war, we’re trying to choose a candidate, for crying out loud. All of the screaming will not change my mind as much as reason.

As far as the guys at Iwo or at Bastogne, they were fighting so that those rights, life and property, could continue. Back home. In the land of Liberty. Your damn right they were fighting for those things, what’s more, they knew it.

I’ll tell you what they weren’t fighting for, it wasn’t so that you could tell other candidates supporters to creepily take this chance that was sent from God.

It’s beyond frightening if you believe any of these people were sent from God. I’ll stick with Jesus, he seems like a safer bet than the Donald. They’re all just a bunch of politicians, the Donald included.

Ha ha ha ha ha!!!! "Intolerance"??? Really??? Put on your big boy pants and understand that when you take a dump in someone else's yard, they're apt to kick you off their property.

Intolerance isn't what destroyed the GOP. Being bought off, paid for and completely inept is what destroyed the GOP. It started dying many years ago and passed away in 2010...officially.

Now, people keep trying to resuscitate a patient who's been brain-dead and non responsive for 6 years.

I heard that The Onion is buying National Review and combining the staffs since they both have very similar writing styles and commitment to the truth.

Please copy and paste some of the ‘hate’ responces you’ve received from fellow freepers... It’s easier to believe you when you give us facts and screen names not just ‘feelings’...

As far as this radio show host - I can only say that one of the common dirty ticks used by the left is to write hate letters AS IF THOSE LETTERS ARE WRITTEN BY CONSERVATIVES. I’ve talked about this off and on since I became a freeper in 1998.

It’s done in War Rooms and Political Consultant Firms (PR companies). Rush caught this type years ago - - they would call his show with the opening, “I’ve been a Republican for _____ (fill in the blank number of years) BUT I’M UPSET WITH... (then they would go on to bash some Republican)

The other trick to to write letters to our guys with fake direction... it’s dreadful. All I can say to this radio hosts is he needs to ask himself if any of the people he knows in is real world who are backing Trump act like the people in the letters.

I’ve lost a lot of respect for Prager, who advertises his writings as “Wisdom.”

Too much ego, not enough humility.

I didn't mention hate responses from FReepers, but since you asked for Trump zombie insane FReepmails, here you go...

Your wife cheats on you. Your neighbors laugh at you.
___________

Ok, come pick up that pig of yours.
She’s probably going to need a really good shower.
She’s such a dirty girl.
Would you rather I bring her home? i’ll use one of my work truck and throw her in the back so it doesn’t stink the cab up.
At least your neighbors are used to seeing her get dropped off like that.
______________________

You live next to a sewage lagoon, and you wife sleeps with the trash guy, and you can’t do a damn thing about it because you’re a freakin sissy, louzer. You don’t even make enough to get out of the relationship, and she owns your balls, bitch.

Nice, huh? There are lots more, but you get the idea. These are what serves as reasoned civil discourse in the age of Trump, courtesy of one of his zombie true believers, one "Travis T. OJustice" who I am certain is quite brave while sitting behind a screen, but would never have the balls to say any of this in person.

I'm not too concerned about this, because I recognize that Mr. OJustice is just a cowardly half-wit following the example of, and living vicariously through the bullying behavior of a reality TV star turned presidential candidate, but you asked for an example, so there it is.

And actually, this is pretty mild - I've gotten multiple death threats on facebook for posting anything that conflicts with the Trump party line. Again, I can take care of myself, so I'm not concerned with these a-holes - but the behavior ought to be troubling.

Read this, if you doubt the tactics used by Trump supporters like our dim-witted friend Travis.

Absolutely correct. You point to plan details he revealed this week, which are contradicted by his own statements in support of the individual mandate as recently as a couple of weeks ago.

Trump's own words are "hearsay?" Wow, you're really willing to suspend that disbelief, huh?

Why do you get to decide who is Conservative and who isn’t? Your opinion contradicts with others. We all have the right to vote our own minds. All these who just name call and insult aren’t persuading anyone to change their minds. Your post is an example of the intolerance. If a person dares think differently from you, “ they have abandoned Conservative principles”.

The GOP has destroyed itself, with the majority of Republicans elected totally ignoring their electorate. I’m sick of elitist telling me to think a certain way and shut up and continue to vote for us. Done. Your no different from them, if I dare to disagree. My intelligence, religion, Conservatism, patriotism, etc. gets called into question for not going along with this or that poster. All that does is make me question why I thought This group was any different from any other large gathering of people on the internet. Still the same rudeness and child like behavior you get any where else.

I watched the entire clip on the bottom of this page.
It’s note mandatory in the Obamacare sense.

He talks about open market competition for the majority of the paying public and an emergency care system the indigent.
