This exemplifies a disturbing tactic of the left, demonizing anyone who holds differing political views, attempting to turn them into social pariahs, causing them whatever harm they're able to within the law.
I happen to think that Hillary Clinton is a criminal who belongs in federal prison. I think the only reason she's not being prosecuted is that the current administration is corrupt, and views laws as weapons to be used against political opponents rather than a set of rules to be applied equally to all citizens. I am of the opinion that her "foundation" that accepted "donations" from countries that had business before the US State Department while she was running, it, is basically a money-laundering operation for bribes. I believe the woman who accused her husband of viciously and violently raping her in a hotel room was telling the truth, and I think those Democrats who are throwing fits over Trump's crude statements and sketchy allegations of his impropriety are hypocrites, considering the way they defended Bill Clinton and elevated him to the status of Elder Party Statesman after he left office.
And yet I think people should be free to publicly support Hillary Clinton's bid for POTUS without having their livelihoods come under attack.
Cheers. I am absolutely sick of these McCarthy-esque witchhunts foisted on us. That combined with the recent attacks on freedom of speech have me very wary of the left in general this time around.
I was rooting for Rand Paul and planned on voting for Gary Johnson in the election but the blatant corruption and criminality that has come out exposing Clinton, her laundry list of crimes, the lack of prosecution by the DoJ, and the complete bias in media coverage has me in the Trump camp this time around.
This is exactly why as a former independent I am going with the Republicans this time around. Although I do tend to side with them on more issues, it's the way the Dems conduct themselves that has completely turned me off of them:
It's sentiments like this that still give Trump a serious shot at winning, even if more scandals about him are unveiled. I hate both but am voting for Clinton, but can very much understand your position.
The whole "basket of deplorables", virtue signalling, moral superiority thing turns into a self-fulfilling prophecy.
