[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Meh. Trump personally drives a lot of the nastiness and hate. Just look at his rally speeches. The GOP has become like the kid that loves to taunt others and then whines when they won't take it quietly.[/quote]

When someone responds to nastiness with nastiness, what I take away is that they're both nasty and I wish they would both cut it out.

When someone responds to nastiness with a call for better behavior, or a disgusted reaction, it leaves the nastiness on the side that's displaying it rather than spewing all over everyone.[/quote]
Being nasty has worked spectacularly well for the GOP, so your statement doesn't hold much water.[/quote]
Agree. What frustrates many of us is how the traditional Dems have been rolled for the past 25 years (since Newt basically), because they followed the old rules of civility while the Republicans played hardball. This culminated with Trump.  I am happy the new generation of Dems is playing hardball - finally!  If that means we have less civility, I’m ok with that. I’m far more likely to support a Dem who shows some fight than one who seems to be phoning it in.  And to be clear, that doesn’t mean their politics need to be far left. To the contrary, I prefer moderate Democrats. I just want them to show some fight!

TL;DR? I’ve got no use for civility. Desperate times call for desperate measures.  [/quote]
