Sarah Hurwitz, Michelle's head speechwriter, used to be Hillary's. So the Trump campaign plagiarized from a Hillary speechwriter.

The official GOP message to voters is that their political opponent is a criminal who should be jailed.
Not funny:

My 8 y/o has tears in his eyes. I ask him why. He asks, "If Trump wins, is he going to kill us because we're Muslims?"
I'm broken 😔

"Hang that bitch!" equates to being a champion of liberty, a pioneer helping to create a new more candid (scary) age

if there's one thing that brings together establishment Republicans and tea partiers, supply-siders and neo-cons, values voters and Ayn Rand acolytes, it's that they all hate Hillary Clinton. They don't just think she has bad ideas on policy, or that she can't match the limitless integrity and honesty of their nominee, or that she wouldn't manage the federal government with sufficient dexterity. They hate her, in a deep and primal way that goes beyond anything logical or rational, much less anything having to do with issues or the challenges of the presidency.
Even so, what's coming out of Cleveland is getting ugly. ........ The most popular T-shirt at Trump rallies reads "Trump That Bitch" in huge letters. As Jenna Johnson wrote last month:
The word is often shouted from the audience as Trump attacks her, murmured in pre-rally conversations, and typed on Twitter. It appears on a popular button sold by vendors at many rallies: 'Life's a bitch, don't vote for one.' And, most prominently, it is on those white T-shirts, created by the Ohio-based Street Talk Tees and sold at nearly all of Trump's rallies. [The Washington Post]
And as Jared Yates Sexton has reported, cries of "Hang that bitch!" have become common at Trump events. .....
