The dangerous threats of an old man don’t create jobs, protect our rights, or keep us safe.

That's a great line from her campaign manager. I love how much they've turned around the old man thing.

And Trump talking about how you can't burn the flag in Russia, China, or North Korea shows once again he wants to be a dictator. He probably doesn't even realize he would be breaking the first amendment

“Kim Jong Un, he looks at us like we are a bunch of babies.”

Americans shouldn’t care what a foreign dictator thinks of them.

“it’s impossible for that to happen in their country.”

Uh, yeah? It’s also impossible for democracy and democratic ideals to happen in their countries. I don’t think I get his point.

When flag burning eventually does happen in one of those countries it will be a visible sign of regime change. In the US, I’d like to think that political change is possible without requiring the entire constitution be re-written.
