Trash your opponent.

That is all they know.

Don't discuss the issues that affect the lives of everyday Americans.

Call your opponent a "liar". Call your opponent a "criminal". Call your opponent "crooked".

Accuse your opponent of everything under the sun without any evidence.

Do away with any hint of civility.

And people wonder what is wrong with Washington?

They're actively trying to destroy us from the inside, and the media helps them every step of the way. It's nauseating to watch.

Their policies have all failed and the when have found the repeated lies about god, guns and sex are no longer resonating.

They have always had hate and grown that "family" value for decades, it has consumed them and it all they can think about is how much they hate Democrats.
