    That tension has become more acute since Mr. Trump’s campaign has had to adjust some events because of heightened security threats against him. Because of those threats, he’s given up playing golf, his favorite method of relaxation, for the remainder of the campaign.

    The horror

      This is quite possibly the best thing that’s come out of this. Trump can’t do something that he truly enjoys because being an absolute piece of shit human to people had a consequence. Awesome.

      I don’t like the guy either, but I don’t like that situation has devolved to the point that he can no longer step outside due to assassination attempts. That level of political violence should not be normalized. (And yes, we all know who was stoking the flames here, this is mostly his own doing.)

        Mostly? Conservatives are entirely responsible for this. He deserves to live in fear. You reap what you sow.

        Repubs have radicalized their people into terrorists. It is unfortunate that they chose to do so. But having those terrorists attacking fellow Repubs is the next best thing to not having terrorists. Hopefully they get a clue and stop stoking the fires of racism in their base using insane conspiracies with no grounding in reality.
