Read this Storify (Jared Yates Sexton) of tonight's Trump rally in Greensboro (frightening shit)

[Moostache]

12. I just finished reading that and I feel sick.

The depth of hate and violence and bigotry is stunning.

The tweet detailing a young child being spanked for asking for a banana split?
Jesus Fucking Christ...I would have lost it right there.
No child deserves that kind of amoral asshat for a dad, NOT ONE EVER.

Childhood is where empathy should be nurtured and protected, where quality parents teach their children that the greatest achievements in life do not have price tags nor are they built on the shattered dreams of others but on the amount of good you can do in the lives of those around you.

There MUST be some people left in the Republican Party that know this must end, that they need to split off from the madness and if Hillary is an ideological bridge too far for them, then find a 3rd party or boycott in protest, anything but voting for the hideous Orange Troll.

Those tweets are haunting. Trump speeches are incoherent urgings to stoke anger and hate and division. That is no basis for a political campaign, that is incitement to riot.

I don't feel any better now, after writing this, and that's starting to scare me. Usually venting about this makes it seem lower volume and less urgent...not tonight.
