Thomas Paine's version of "you didn't build that":
"Separate an individual from society,and give him an island or a continent to possess,and he cannot acquire personal property. He cannot be rich. So inseparably are the means connected with the end,in all cases,that where the former do not exist the latter cannot be obtained. All accumulation, therefore,of personal property,beyond what a man's own hands produce, is derived to him by living in society; and he owes on every principle of justice,of gratitude,and of civilization,a part of that accumulation back again to society from whence the whole came"

Escalating aggression marks Trump’s rally rhetoric
Rachel Maddow Show
The McGlynn: A common and expected occurrence of violence at Donald Trump rallies is now the norm.
Why? Because Trump encourages violence with his right-wing strongman professional wrestling routine. His backers have followed through on his edicts. They have attacked a homeless person who they believed was an “illegal” immigrant, beaten upon a Black Lives Matter protester, and engaged in violent and hostile acts against others who they identify as not part of their tribe.
Republican Party elites are paralyzed by a knot of racism and demagoguery that they both nurtured and created.
Has the thought occurred to any Attorney General, either State or Federal, that the bastard Trump should be arrested and indicted for inciting violence and creating a riot?
