In my opinion this is exactly what is wrong in America today. Why do we have to be so polarized? Why is it if someone has a different belief, a different idea, or support a different party or candidate that we right away turn to name calling? Just because someone thinks differently than you does it really make them an idiot? Or even worse a Nazi (really? Because someone thinks differently than you, you are going to say they are this? Could it be any worse?)?
We need to get rid of the 2 party system. We need to get rid of the endless money being dumped into campaigns. We need to get rid of politicians. We need statesmen. We need independent thinkers and doers. We need to put our country FIRST, not our political affiliation.
Why is it that no matter what someone from “the other side” comes up with it is wrong, a horrible idea and they must be an idiot for even thinking it? Sadly, I’ve seen this happen. Someone tells someone an idea on something, the other person says yeah that makes sense. Then the second person finds out that the first person is the opposite party of them and then suddenly that good idea is terrible and the first person is now an idiot. I honestly believe that one party could come up with the cure for cancer and the other party would say it was stupid and block it from happening.
Until the continuing arguing, insults, and hatred ceases, nothing will be accomplished. This country is supposed to be the leader in the world. We are supposed to be the example setters. Right now we are far from it. Everyone, and I mean EVERYONE, needs to step up their game. Stop the incessant name calling. Stop disagreeing for the sake of disagreeing and start working for the common good of all.
As far as money spent during the last election, Trump spent about half as much as stroke lady.

I don't recall opening any links from Brietbarf in years..
Please let me know if they have cleaned up their act..
From Breitbarf:
White House chief strategist Steve Bannon said he “could care less” about repairing a relationship with the mainstream media, which he continues to characterize as the Trump administration’s “opposition party.”
