Philadelphians and those who have been punched by them, respond to calls to surround the city:
As ballots were being counted at the Pennsylvania Convention Center on Wednesday night, Fox Business Network host Lou Dobbs talked trash about the electoral process in Philly and wondered aloud why Republicans just dont surround the city.
Philadelphia looks like a cesspool electorally," he said on his show. "Why in the world wouldnt the Republicans surround that thing and, if you will, you know, at least apply a little, what would you call it, some sort of scent?
Meanwhile, Republican commentator Harlan Hill took to Twitter early Thursday morning to suggest that Republicans should start bussing Trump supporters to Philly to make them feel our level of pissed off.

We're a city that sets itself on fire when we're HAPPY. Maybe try that shit up in New Hope, but Philly will not respond kindly.

(22,097 posts)viewpoint of a 'trump thug' ... so all of us have to be worried that they're going to burn our cars, trash dumpsters (this happened to me), all kinds of 'revenge' because their PINO that they had for four years already, lost?.
Poor losers, if you ask me, considering at how they rubbed it in our faces when HRC had her election stolen.
No mercy to these thugs.

My uncle, mom's brother, owned some property on S. Main Street.
While it was an artsy place, the locals were pretty rough and tumble.
