Republicans are shocked that "mobs" are forming to resist their violent policies.

Of course, "mobs" is what they call Democrats that protest. They are silent to the mind-numbing language and actions of their President and many in their own Party. You simply cannot talk about "body-slamming" and blame your every failure on the Democrats and not expect a response. It is Republicans that talk about "punching people in the face". Who's the "mob"? Who is actually dividing this country? It depends on who one might ask?

How uncivil to protest some chicken-shit Republican that is out to dinner! They want to eat in peace before they go back to Washington to cut more taxes for their wealthy friends and cut every program for the less fortunate, including Social Security and Medicaid. And they expect no reaction? It's amazing no one has walked up to their table, as they sip their fine wine and dine on lobster and prime rib, and punch them in the face.

Considering what they have done to the American people, they should be grateful. They have been very lucky.

They are trying to criminalize others with a label so that they can destroy all opposition. It's is deliberate strategy. They are the real fascist mob.

Saw an ad this morning blasting Democrat's for "hatred" and "mobs"...with footage that showed protests, along with speech footage of Elizabeth Warren and Maxine Waters. It was sickening to me that they think their path to success is the foment further division. Fear is their only selling point.
