I agree and conceded that I didn't think you meant it. I just think that this, for an awful lot of people, has become a very personal vendetta and the sort of abuse being hurled at Trump has more to do with that than anything he's actually done, just like the sort of abuse Ms Miller has been getting which you have cited elsewhere. I always question the logic of those who decry abuse, intimidation and extremism but don't mind engaging in it when it suits. What I'm saying isn't a defence of Trump, it's a comment on the mindset of those who jump on the bandwagon at everything he says, does and doesn't do regardless of any facts. They're like a baying mob and it's all too common nowadays sadly. For some people it might seem OK when it's Trump on the receiving end but it won't stop there will it...
