Out the 27 or so items you listed SEVEN had Trump listed in the blurb. So about 25%.

Several of the incidents indicate that the victim (odd word to use i this scenario) was probably the Pro-Trump person though likely culpability is not one sided.

A couple instances are really unclear.

Here are the general problems I have with your list:

  • Many of these issues were happening by a$$holes with problems to begin with. Not excusing it at any level but it was already happening.
  • The link to Trump is just a small percentage
  • Some may have been instigated by the other side
  • Most of these I have not seen on the news. But nearly every day I hear how Hate Crimes are happening at alarming rates. These incidents while shameful and ridiculous are not happening at an alarming rate.
