So far, he's laughed and joked about a woman's right to an abortion and called a black police officer a thug.

Trump is fucking insane and a worthless piece of flesh.

Trump: I like to kill puppies.

Audience, composed entirely of convicted puppy killers: applause

Trump: If reelected, I will kill all the puppies.

Audience, all wearing "death to puppies" tshirts: applause intensifies

CNN: this is unbiased journalism lol

it's becoming increasingly clear CNN's new leadership both has a right-wing bent and just generally has no idea what it's talking about. i have no idea how anyone can say with a straight face that the media has "ignored" Trump voters when if anything they're disproportionately given relevance.

It is another example of projection. Ignoring and suppressing the voices of their opponents is precisely what the far-right wants to do. To validate doing this, they claim this is happening to them.
