i agree it’s petty and juvenile. what i don’t get, is why it’s worse when trump does it, than it is when obama does it. can you explain that? i’d appreciate it.

And I know the right tries to make an equivalency bt when Clinton or Obama do something 1 time and when Trump does it hundreds or times. (I'll let you in on a secret that you don't seem to understand - there is no equivalency no matter how many times you post that Clinton called Repub. deplorables - even though she apologized or when Obama said Repubs. have to stop hating).

And Collins was banned from an open event - not told she had to give up her spot on an airplane to be replaced by someone else like your example.

Trump is becoming more and more unhinged and petty. The amount of lies he tells on a day to day basis has been increasing.

"bt when Clinton or Obama do something 1 time "

Why not?

Just because your side would look bad if there was an equivalence, that's not evidence that there's not an equivalence.

In Clinton's case, it was a prepared, scripted comment. Who gives a damn that she apologized? It's clearly what she feels. It's no skin off my nose, I don't especially care what a corrupt loser thinks of people on my side of the aisle. I just think it's amusing that liberals get a pass for spewing hate, but conservatives get called hateful for spewing hate.

That hypocrisy, is a big reason why Hilary lost. Many people had enough.

Funny, but petty. How about the ones you used to post w/Obama's brown suit or his feet up on the desk?
