In the US, domestic terrorism by white right-wingers is far more common than any other type you could care to name.

Wanna guess what demographic Trump caters to?

Working class white people.

But hey, if guilt by belonging to a certain group is your thing then I could definitely use that against groups of Clinton supporters.

Let's not go down that road, mm'kay? It's inexcusable and despicable and the fact that you're even trying to justify it means you should be ashamed of yourself.

Definitely.
Anti Trump going full Trump. Missing the irony too. Calling for deportations is bad! So we should deport all the people calling for deportations!

Trump has an authoritarian streak, we should ban his supporters!

Irony here.

Hypocrisy abounds when you have the self-awareness of a rock.

Highly debatable, but that is not the point. Calling for mass deportations of US citizens because you politically disagree is wrong. And authoritarian itself.

Not even remotely debatable, the facts are solidly on my side.

And that isn't what Corrian said.

Like cool story. I'm pissed off at that whole thing myself, but that's not my fucking topic and you're just going off and ranting about it.

"Maybe you're just not as angry about it as I am because you don't know the history"

Um, I am angry, but I BLEW YOUR RESPONSE OFF BECAUSE YOU WENT OFF ON SOME RANDOM TANGENT FOR NO REASON RELATED TO MY TOPIC. I was trying to do a positive story and she just turns it negative.

Ugh, sorry for the pointless rant everyone, my mom just pissed me off when I'm trying to tell her a respectable Obama story.

Admittedly, I'm not fully up to speed with the North Dakota issue. But I'm not even sure that's entirely a fair criticism...

Trump caters to racists, bigots, and xenophobes; not only that, he's been encouraging them to commit acts of violence, and has been trying to delegitimize the peaceful transfer of power that is the foundation of any democracy - Clinton wasn't that far off the mark when she called half of his base a basket of deplorables.

Anyone who supports Trump, whether they are those things or not, should feel ashamed. Choosing to belong to a group as despicable as Trump's is something worthy of condemnation.

Trump caters to the poorly-educated, not the poor.

Income is a poor determinant of voting once education is controlled for.

In any case, Trump doesn't just cater to Whites -- he caters to White nationalists and the David Dukes of the world.

& You should be ashamed of yourself for being a Trump apologist.
