(5,928 posts)No president in modern history would have stooped so low. Can you imagine President Obama re-publishing a video showing Senator McCain being violently knocked over, as if that were funny?
Even W, for all his faults, had too much human decency to do something like that.
How low have we fallen? And how low have we yet to fall?

(40,207 posts)It is a spliced gif with Trump swinging a golf club and Hillary Clinton tripping as she enters an airplane. It is made to look like Trump hits a golf ball that then hits Hillary in the back and makes her fall.

(81,451 posts)What Is Trump Worth to Twitter? One Analyst Estimates $2 Billion
By Jeran Wittenstein

Without Donald Trump, Twitter Inc. could lose almost a fifth of its value.
Thats the conclusion of Monness Crespi Hardt & Co. analyst James Cakmak, who said that the social media company would see as much as $2 billion in market value wiped out if @realDonaldTrump quit tweeting.
Its not that the presidents defection would touch off a mass exodus, lowering the number of monetizable daily active users, Cakmak said in an interview. Instead, losing its most prominent user would hit Twitters intangible value and lead to whats known as multiple compression.
There is no better free advertising in the world than the president of the United States, said Cakmak, who has a neutral rating on Twitter shares.

(10,125 posts)It's the perfered platform of hate and negative messaging. Instant and anonymous. It could be such a positive tool, but that bottom line isn't as rosy.
I would suggest that w/o *45 their valuation takes a larger than 20% hit.

(40,207 posts)This should be made into a big deal. He should be forced to apologize.
Trump is a crass low life. That is what he has always been. A low life with a lot of money is still a low life.

(63,221 posts)She is getting tons of positive attention from her book and her supporters are coming out of the woodwork for her. He is insanely jealous because he knows that nobody really likes or cares about him. They only support him because he makes their hatred and intolerance seem legitimate.
His followers are low-lifes. Hillary's are decent, intelligent human beings.

(4,429 posts)Trump hides behind the idea that HE didn't create it (no kidding, does anyone think he has even that much computer skill?).
But coming from the 'President' this carries significant weight. It's really criminal harassment..........

(31,109 posts)to look at what this piece of shit did and the fact that over 50 million of us see no issue with it.
Fuck, IT IS OVER, what we are now doing is handling our lives on an hour to hour basis hoping we dont have nuclear war, nothing more
Hortensis
(58,785 posts)Maybe we're supposed to see this as spouting off, but it just seems like folding into fetal in the face of a little, very, very little adversity. How many here have even missed a meal because America is done? How about had an election canceled? Will you be too weakened by despair to bother voting in 2018, or are you assuming troops will be in the streets shooting down all those stupid enough to try?
A broader perspective might be helpful. Maybe dump the intensely negative, profit-generating MSM and other media's soul sucking coverage and replace it with some personal action? Volunteer at a hospital?
