    During the campaign he offered to pay the legal bills of any of his supporters who assaulted a protester

    Trump's sense of humor isn't to my liking, but you've got to be pretty dense to take that as a non-joke.

    Think about that for a second... Some jerk actually attacks some Democrat schmuck and Trump openly writes him a check? Are you seriously?

    yes liberalism is based in ignorance so debate and democracy does not suit them; violence does. LIberal brownshirts have violently opposed conservatives speaking in public for a long time now!

    Tiny incident compared to broad pervasive long standing liberal brownshirt violence! Most importantly liberalism is based in ignorance so violence is natural for them. They are not suited to debate and democracy. Liberals have long deployed anti free speech violence against conservatives and libertarian speakers.

    He asked a question that the Republican legislator didn't like

    Totally incorrect, the reporter asked a question and it wasn't answered to his liking and then he became threating, and that is when the reporter got slammed.

    "[However,] as we reported, three Fox News reporters who were in the room preparing for the interview with Gianforte confirmed that the candidate 'grabbed Jacobs by the neck with both hands and slammed him into the ground ... then began punching the reporter.' "

    Hey don't assault people, otherwise plan on getting a butt-kicking in return.

    One suspects there was a bit more to it than that.

    Well, the press serves the aristocracy, of which Trump is a highly visible part.

    So really, it's just aristocratic infighting.

    The irony of Trump demonizing the free press is that the free pressed was so dazzled by the audience allure of the reality tv performer's sordid antics that they lavished free coverage on his lowlife demeaning of Republicans seeking the Party's presidential nomination, thus enabling the infestation of the GOP by Trumpery.

    1. The MSM is LW because it is part of a gov-edu-union-contractor-grantee-trial lawyer-MSM Complex that profits from high taxes, redistribution and overpowered central government. Has little to do with what viewers want because advertisers and advertiser profits drive media. What matters most is that enough viewers use redistributed money to buy the products.

    What also matters is forming more and larger pools of graft money that feed the Complex under the guise of free stuff "rights" to things that aren't rights, such as central healthcare.

    2. Perfect LW dishonesty: MSM and LW leaders' constant, pervasive stirring of violence that leads directly to documented violent results is to be ignored, projected, deflected, rationalized. Trump's singular joke about a body slam is the real problem. Fooling no one other than the Complex and its low awareness blocs.

    3. The political division in the U.S. is between a massive Complex that feeds on ever higher taxes and redistribution and a non government-dependent private sector of taxpayers who pay for it. LW/RW, Republican/Democrat, Conservative/Liberal are half true, convenient deflections designed to conceal the true interests of contemporary U.S. politics from the public.

    As you know, Trump doesn't demonize the free press, he points out and complains about fake news.

    The partisan Democrat MSM wanted Trump as the GOP nominee because he was the weakest GOP candidate.

    Any other Republican would have had a landslide victory against Hillary.

    Your self-serving Trumpery spin is noted.

    I don't think using some low level of violence against reporters is necessarily a bad thing. And I don't limit this to members of the main stream or liberal media. I've seen several instances where FoxNews Jesse Waters has when saying he was trying to "interview" someone was clearly harassment and he would've deserved a punch or two.

    Trump is the new normal now that liberals have extended the franchise to anyone who can breath.

    actually the press despises Trump because he does not have their Ivy League sensibilities. Do you understand?

    Only you can speak for your "liberals" but Trumpery will never be "normal."

    Facts are tenacious, and the p-grabbing reality tv performer's fakery is not an enduring substitute.

    Conservatives will take back their Party from the RINOs of Trumpery.

    This may help you:

    Do you think convicted felons and welfare recipients are going to vote for a polite college professor?? Isn't learning fun? Liberals gave us Trump with their idiotic ideas about extending the franchise to anyone who can breathe and to anyone who wants a welfare check!!
