During all the time I was on ABC News during Obama's presidency I never once got a death threat for criticizing Obama. Since Trump has been President, while at ABC and then at MSNBC, I have received multiple death threats for criticizing Trump.

It's obvious the violence injected in this political season is coming from the Right, exclusively.

Meanwhile the 'poorly educated' lash out at every negative comment just like the orange anus they worship.

(545 posts)8. Threats to white male privilege have always been met with violence
by the part of America that is AmeriKKKa,. Trump is the epitome of white male privilege, the "lodestar" if you pardon a tired expression, and today's GOP is its vehicle. I can't imagine what Kamala Harris is dealing with on this regard.
