Are the Rush Limbaughs and the Howie Carrs and Mark Levins being blind tribalists about Trump? How can they be blind about:
-I would be okay with worse than waterboarding. How about beheading?
-Don’t give him his coat, let him freeze in the minus something temprature out there.
-Beat the crap out of him (the heckler was in the audience)
and on and on?

@ARE_you_kidding_me But Glen Beck also needs ratings, and yet…far from bowing to him.

@Cruiser
From http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=politically+incorrect
politically incorrect

A phrase used by those attempting to pull an ideological snowjob on their audience; implies that the statement is some deep (often offensive) truth that the Establishment is ignoring or obfuscating, when in all likelihood the snowjobber is trying to disguise a wingnut theory as a piece of significant thought.”

“They say it’s politically incorrect to deny evolution; I say it’s just incorrect.

@Cruiser Trump has said already indirectly http://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/jan/24/donald-trump-says-he-could-shoot-somebody-and-still-not-lose-voters
that his followers are not the least bit critical thinkers, in fact that they are fools, or slaves to him.
