How low the GOP has sunk in just 8 years...From this to Trumpism....

Sad!

But, in all fairness, it's not the entire GOP. With Kasich, you wouldn't have this kind of stupidity. Even Cruz wouldn't say such things.

It was obviously a joke guys lol.

Even if it was one. Where is the red line for him? Where does it stop? You don't make jokes about shoting people.

I don't think he was advocating what you guys think.

I think it was more of the Jeffersonian thought on the Second Amendment, armed militia takeover.

In either event, a not-so-wise thing to joke about.

Oh yeah, that would fit with his stupid claim that elections are rigged. To even mention this in that context is disgusting.

Are you no longer supporting Trump, Mr Johnson?

No, the Khan issue was a red line for me in conjunction with Hillary's great DNC speech and the selection of Tim Kaine. She wasn't my first choice (would have prefered Biden, Webb or Jerry Brown), but now fully supporting her.

Is there anything Trump can say that his supporters wouldn't call sarcastic or a joke?

No. They can "play" and protect themselves by using the "poorly-educated" card/role, on why their responses are childish and irresponsible.


He just misspoke Wink

It was a probably a joke, he shouldn't say that, but then again, this is a free country and you cannot censor free speech. Hey, on the left, you have SJWs saying some vicious things towards white conservatives, and even black conservatives who don't think like the BLM crew. Trump needs to tone down the nonsense.

Except you absolutely can censor speech. It's why it is illegal to say bomb on an airplane or fire in a theater. Something that misrepresents a clear and present danger is absolutely illegal. Hate speech is illegal. This is borderline, but only because it is technically "political speech" and the least regulated of all types of speech.

Keep also in mind that not everything that is legal is morally justified.

However, all of this would not be happening if Democrats don't stop talking about gun control. They're only putting themselves in trouble by making this a big issue, year after year. Yes, we need background checks, but stop demonizing gun owners and guns, and stop making it a major issue. Let the states handle these issues.

Uh yeah, it's the Dems fault now? They make policy proposals, on which you can agree or disagree, and that justifies such a disgusting joke by the GOP nominee? Trump is a disgrace.

At this point, Democrats should be getting worried that he really isn't going to last until the election. The chances of him being replaced seem to have risen from 0 to 5%
How would that work, he would still appear on the ballot in lots of states

The states will change their laws if need be. Dont worry about it.

Just a question: Four years ago the conventions were in kate August/early September. Did some states change their deadlines or were Obama and Romney put on the ballot prior to their official nomination?
