Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer called President Trump’s speech at a Greenville, North Carolina rally on Wednesday “despicable,” and called the chanting crowd “eerily familiar to what happens in dictatorships.”

Thousands of Trump supporters changed “send her back” at the rally, in reference to Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., who came to the United States from Somalia.

Schumer blamed Republicans for not standing up to the president.

He urged people to to call GOP senators “and tell them to tell the president to stop this.”

Trump has attacked Omar, a Muslim-American, and three other Democratic progressive lawmakers in recent tweets and comments.

The four women, known as “the squad,” have been critical of Trump and his policies, particularly his effort to deport illegal immigrants and prevent them from entering the country.

That's stupid even for Schumer.

The Dems seem committed to the Trump = Hitler meme.

And what, then, was Obama leading his rally attendees in his "Yes we can!" chant?

"Si, si puede"?

"Si, si puede"?

I mainly remember that chant/slogan from Cesar Chavez and the UFW here in CA. The Quetzalcoatl statue in Cesar Chavez Plaza here in San Jose is humorously and ironically appropriate:

No, Schmuck, this is what happens in dictatorships - especially those of which the left is so fond:

Boy who was shot in the face during Venezuelan protest LOSES both of his eyes after images of his horrific injuries shocked the world

    Rufo Chacon, 16, shot in the face by rubber bullets during protest in Venezuela
    Of 52 pieces of rubber buckshot that hit him in the face, 16 of them entered his eyes, forcing medics to remove them both and leaving him blind
    Chacon says he desperately wants his sight back and is starting to forget colours
    Two police officers have been arrested and accused of attempted murder

Looks like tires. Viva la revolucion, and all that.

So...I guess Schumer's Antifa Brownshirts are just Christian Boy Scouts, who only want to help old ladies cross the street, and to do community service. Right? They are not violent thugs sponsored and encouraged by Democrats who want to break the heads of anyone they think might oppose Democrats or them.

Antifa is what happens in dictatorships. And they are 100% owned and operated by so called "Liberal" Despotic Democrats.

Why?  I'm sure Chuck has called Trump a dictator a hundred times or better.  He did it last week.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) rebuked President Donald Trump on Tuesday for his recent attack on Fox News ― a network that has generally treated him with favorable and sometimes fawning coverage ―  comparing the commander-in-chief to a dictator.

“What kind of thin skin does this man have?” Schumer asked in a Senate floor speech. “It shows he really doesn’t believe in freedom of the press. Dictators shut down the press, try to shame the press when they speak truth to power, which is what our press has done in all the years of this republic.”

It's so easy too.  You try it.

In a bit of a mood this morning, are you?

In a bit of a mood this morning, are you?

I'm excited.  I get a warm tingle when the President is going to have an all day tweet-storm.

[skeeter]

I was wondering why the media and the rats aren't attacking the 'send her back' chant more vigerously, as it even made me cringe.

Then I noticed Trump is tweeting about Omar's likely immigration fraud and it became clear they know they'd be treading a very fine line.

I had the same reaction.

If they had chanted "go back" it wouldn't have bothered me. In one it's a voluntary action and in the other it's coercion.

Nope.
SEND HER BACK.

I've been calling for that in this forum for a long, long time.

To wit:
All muslims must leave dar al-harb and return to dar al-islam.
Either voluntarily, or, if they won't go that way, by non-voluntary means.

Give them the option:
Renounce islam, convert to Christianity, and... remain.
Not willing to do that?
LEAVE.

And that's that.

That's a nice story.
