When will all the Trump bashing slow down a bit?

I thought it was supposed to be Liberals who couldn't take criticism, and needed safe spaces and political correctness, to cope?

Surely the price of being in the oval office is, now, to be ridiculed and mocked and lied about, and to see yourself hanged in effigy, at rallies all over the country?

That's the new normal, since 2008, isn't it?

Didn't Mr Trump himself lead that “birther" campaign ?

Didn't the Tea Party hold logic-free rallies, demanding …?…well. They held alot of 'hate Obama' rallies.

The placards -remember them? Misspelled and badly punctuated slogans with pictures of the President photoshopped into a “native" out of a 30s Tarzan movie? Or Hitler?

The abuse heaped on the first lady and their children, was that some how acceptable “bashing"?

This is what those eight years of aggressive, infantile, racist, pointless attacks on a respectable, eloquent, educated and extremely moderate President and First Lady have created.

Respect for the popular consensus (not that Trump won that), and the dignity of the office, (not that Trump respects this even now that he's in it) have gone from public discourse.

Reasoned debate and basic common decency have been forced out of fashion, and Trump was one of the torch-wielding mob who drove them to extinction, because they couldn't see the value of such things.

And now his fans are crying, because this new rudeness is biting them in the ass.

It was only supposed to apply to black presidents!”
