I need to apologize for tweeting caustic remarks after seeing a reporter berated & abused. Hate begets hate. My comments referred ONLY to those jeering and swearing at the man, not a broad swath of people. But the fault is mine for causing confusion and feeding anger. 1/3

So Marc Caputo mocked attendees of President Donald Trump’s Tampa rally Tuesday night, referring to them as toothless “garbage people.”.. But he said later that he understood some readers had taken exception to his calling them that .

He wrote this later about that: "I'm sorry. I apologize. I ask you to note that I did not call trump supporters  deplorables, fly-over state fornicators, or common morons of the midwest. But I did say "toothless garbage people" No escaping that. And for that slip of the keyboard, I apologize.

Politico  stands by his apology.

Typical arrogant, elitist, sanctimonious snob with an air of superiority that leftists always exhibit.  It's odd though... how they portray Trump's supporters as uneducated hicks.... since... more of the population that are the 'real uneducated ignorant masses' always vote DemocRat.  That would include felons and drug addicts (probably more likely to be toothless...lol).

@XenaLee

All very true.

At the same time, I've seen some photos of screaming women giving the finger, and "f--k you" t-shirts.  That crap doesn't get any praise from me, either.

Well, wouldn't it depend on who's getting the finger and the f--k you?  Do you know?

Nor is it deserving of praise.

[Bigun]

He's just upset because we toothless garbage people have had enough and are going to take our country back!

Yeah, @Right_in_Virginia, I know, and it might be news to you, but it’s possible to recognize that both are wrong.  Imagine that.

Have you seen the pic of some damn fool holding an infant over the crowd with a CNN Sucks sign pinned to his onesie?  You know damn well we would condemn the left for that.  A baby had no business being in that place.

@XenaLee

Thank you for your common sense.

Why would I condemn someone on the left for taking their baby to a rally? Why would I care?  Sometimes the things you want to argue about are just bizarre and more disturbing than the event itself.

And sometimes it's just silly ... like this.

Anyone take a look at this ugly douche? If anyone should shut the eff up about how other people look it should be this rat turd loser...



BTW @CatherineofAragon if you were wondering why I like to take a huge steaming dump on garbage "news" pieces here from Polutico and the other favorites of the Trump hating factions, it is because they are written by filth like this who have no objectivity at all and make shit up just to fill screens.

@Right_in_Virginia

Yes, you’re absolutely right.  There’s no problem whatsoever with taking an infant into a screaming crowd and hoisting him like a piñata to make a political point.  Responsible parents know it.

@Frank Cannon

Why do you think I was wondering that?

@Frank Cannon

Because you spun off the rails when I took a shit on that thread you posted a couple days ago like it was an affront to civilization.

[corbe]

   Why does Trump even need to hold rallys in Floriduh, he's there every weekend Golfing, seems redundant and a waste of $$$$. 

   *What is his handicap, anyway, anyone know?

[Frank Cannon]

Having to be President to people like you.

[corbe]

Having to be President to people like you.

    It never bothered obummer.

Sure about that?

[Sanguine]

    It never bothered obummer.

I dunno about that; he always looked slightly pained at having to be our president.

[corbe]

   I'm over 6 years clean on opiates and haven't done heroin in 50 years.
   obummer hated and discarded me for the same reason Trump's GOP does.
   Though he's done some good things in a conservative vein, that I have complimented here, I do not accept his style of populism in governing and hope he tires of this charade soon, the cat has caught it's tail, move on, chase something else.

Hygiene problems or do you never pick up the check at a restaurant?

You’ve never seen me spin off the rails, trust me.

   I always pay and tip very well @Frank Cannon. 
   I got up late this morning, took a shower, and walked the 2 blocks to my local gas station to buy some smokes and the counter women asked me if I just got out of the river or the shower (cause my hair was still wet), I told her it was just greasy, she called me a dirty ol man (she had big chalupas). 
   The moral of this story is that people rarely 'grok' anymore.

Wow. That's a statement. Did you say you kicked heroin 50 years ago or 5 minutes ago?

[Maj. Bill Martin]

Wait a minute...have I missed all the media outraged directed at the Trump supporters who have been harassed, spat at, and assaulted by members of The Resistance?

And in any case, which media darling politician was it who said that people should go up to their neighbors and "get in their faces" to argue politics?
