It’s about the loyalty of his supporters. I don’t think it would matter who it was he was shooting – unlike the police. They have to shoot the right people or they get people complaining.
I don’t defend BAD cops, but isn’t it interesting the media either never cover, or cover up, whenever police shoot an ARMED suspect? Or of course a cowboy with a gun goes down and his supporters still try to defend him, despite the evidence.
Maybe if there were fewer guns out there, and officers didn’t have to assume that ALL suspects are potentially armed, and are TRAINED to respond as if they are, because of those odds, maybe society needs reforms, not just law enforcement?
While I was walking on a sidewalk, Trump could attack me with an SUV in a hit and run, and my web pages would go viral with higher media ratings than any candidate in the entire election.
It’s true that Trump’s supporters are stupid enough to stick with him. His problem isn’t their loyalty. His problem is their numbers. He gets about 1/3 of the Republican base. Republicans make up about 1/3 of the voters. 1/3 of 1/3 is roughly 11% of the voters. The rest of us think that they are all nuts, would vote for either Bernie or Hillary instead, so there is no way he can win the White House. All he is able to do is destroy the Republican party. And, considering that he and the Clintons are friends, I suspect that that is the objective.

What trump’s worshipers miss us that he’s mocking them, not praising them.
