Police in Kansas City last night used pepper spray.

Trumpās got his lemmings in a lather.
But Trump may soon regret trying to put a bridle on this tiger.
Trumpās well aware of the Huey Long history, when it comes, it will not be an angry leftie who harms him when it inevitably happens, Trumpās got bitter enemies from way before he ever decided to use the election system to get his A-list mojo back.
Like Long, one of the many people Trump tramped all over through his years as a corporate creep could use this constant public exposure to stalk him. Trump left a string of bitter enemies whose hate goes well beyond politics.
Now that heās unleashed the mob to do his bidding, he has no idea where those old foes are hanging out in their midst. But if someone hutrts Trump, it won;t be some protester, it will be someone hiding in his own crazy pack of rabid wolves.

āThe real estate mogul is routinely unable to deliver a speech without interruptionā Calling the hate, lies and bigotry that Trump spews from the stage a"speech" is rather generous.

Some of the comments by Trump, and more than a few of his supporters, prove that ignorant racists tend to be ignorant that theyāre actually racists.
.
Maybe Trump can get the Hellās Angels to provide security.

I didnāt see this in Joshās post yesterday. Did anyone else?
they used a Stones song after Trumpās rally last night, āYou canāt always get what you wantā but it almost seemed like a prank on The Donald, the lyrics can be quite stinging to someone like Trump.

Apparently his folks arenāt smart enough. What song is it?
You Canāt Always Get What You Want
Thatās why they love him. They are free to express their racism and ignorance. I just read that ads against him ran 7000 times in certain areas of Florida

Trump is amassing BrownShirts.
Instead of receiving a salary, these are worse. These ones work either for free or pay Trump for the opportunity.
BrownShirts, Ladies and Gentlemen. Does the MSM understand WHAT THAT MEANS???

tRump says he wants to press charges. What would the crime be? Seems like more bluster and threats that he uses to try and intimidate people. Maybe we can have a reality show between him and that North Korean dictator. They seem cut from the same cloth.

Drumpf is less interested in politics per se than he is about ego. Attention is his drug of choice, and sadly for the American people he has discovered that politics can supply that drug in YUUGE quantities.
So as each bit of behavior gets less and less notice, he will contort himself into more outrageous acts to feed the attention addiction. Maybe-- maybe-- he will self-destruct. Or maybe his escalating behavior will draw even more media and new fans.

From Josh (to-day in a piece called āSomeone will dieā)
" āUnfortunately my state of mind after being knocked down and hurt myself, and being caught between a group of white supremacists and Black Lives Matter protestors contributed to my behavior however, there is no excuse for my actions,ā he wrote.
Iāve seen various responses to this apology, some seeing it as insufficient and insincere, others seeing it as genuine and contrite. Some say he shifts the blame. If nothing else, this is no mere āIām sorry if anyone took offenseā type nonsense non-apology. It is abject and unflinching. But set all that aside. Thatās not what concerns me here. Bambergerās overarching explanation rings very true to me. Indeed, it is backed up by decades of social science: People act very differently in crowd or mob situations than they do on their own. There are various theories as to just why this is the case - again, thereās a whole social science and group psychology literature about it. But crowd/mob situations are profoundly disinhibiting events. People sometimes do things they themselves not only regret but almost literally canāt believe they did."
I have been referencing Collective Behaviour and other social science courses (like Social Change) which deal with the irrational, sudden and charismatic-based action. I have been doing this for weeks. This is not a āpopcornā moment.
This is a State of Emergency. A State of Emergency with a Triangle of homegrown Brownshirts on the one hand and deniers of Trumpās menace by the masses on another and a compliant and enabling (to Trump) cadre of stenographers of the MSM.
These Trump Brownshirts, unlike Hitlers, are MORE ARMED.

is the spontaneous mob Trump tapped.
CULT behavior is where heās taking them.
The problem with cults is they take on a life of their own choosing, and anyone who thinks they can bridle that tiger might very well get eaten by it.
Trump fancies himself as the eye of the tiger, when he may just be in that tigerās ever-hungry eye.
