You don’t get to support a president that sides with neo-nazis as they are killing people and then demand the other side be polite and peaceful….

Do you deny that his administration is working to make it harder for minorities to vote?

Do you deny that this administration is doing away with programs meant to hold police accountable for abuses?

THAT is what you signed up for when you cast your lot with Trump. Have you been in a goddamn coma? NFL players are peacefully protesting, and the president you supported and defended has been attacking and threatening them... The SOB that had contempt for a POW because he was captured calls them disrespectful... And now you have the temerity to say they should be more quiet and respectful while this is happening? <img src="http://gif-finder.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/Animation-Fuck-You.gif" alt="" /> The “man” and the party you voted for are doing all they can to strip that vote from the people with legitimate grievances… THAT is what you signed up for when you cast your lot with Trump.
