Seems extremely disingenuous that Trump supporters of all people would criticize hate and name calling when Trump's campaign was run on those issues, but I guess it's always easier to strike a conciliatory tone when you've won.


The entire collective campaign strategy of Democrats has been to name call, demonize, and fear monger. Don't even try to pretend it was them.


So calling your opponent "Crooked <name>" and repeatedly referring to them by what is effectively a slur was a... Democrat strategy?


I'm not a Trump supporter by any stretch but mother of god if "crooked" which is literally just an adjective and is pretty appropriate when applied to Hillary Clinton is now considered a slur all these angry white people might just be on to something.


No, but calling your opponent's supporters "deplorables" and repeatedly insinuating that they're all bigoted, sexist, racists was.


See that Trump and Trump supporters largely limited their name calling to Hillary, whereas Hillary and Hillary supporters largely blasted on Trump as well as his supporters.


Accusing people of racism and sexism isn't name calling.


You commie! Nazist!

not insulting btw just describing your opinions :^)
