[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To those asking for unity... Did you see the Madison Square Garden event? Kamala was described as "Samoan-Malaysian", a whore, and the Anti-Christ. Puerto Ricans live on a floating pile of garbage. Hillary Clinton was described as a "sick SOB." And Trump talks about the enemy within and ruling like a dictator. We say that Trump is fascist because his own 4-star general chief of staff said he would rule like a fascist if reelected. We didn't make that up or use the term lightly. So now we're supposed to forgive and forget?[/quote]

I am the OP, and the level of discourse at the MSG rally was awful; I think we can all agree: regrettable comments were made.

But let’s be real here:  the level of discourse was lowered when those voting for President Trump were collectively labeled: “a basket of deplorables” many years ago.  I don’t recall any apology or regret.  It is hardly the only example. Both sides do it, if we are being honest.

And the issue of “labels” on people in general:  it is time for that to end.

I am specifically referring to identity politics, which are so toxic to our nation and our democracy.

Let’s move forward as one nation, working together to make America a better place for us to live and raise our families.[/quote]
