I respectfully disagree. When a politician and party are inciting violence, encouraging a coup, and undermining the foundations of democracy then I think we’ve crossed over the line from needing to be accepting of different views.

At this point all of this is just an old-fashioned witch hunt. Rowan Atkinson was not referring to Trump but his exact words apply here.

People's mentality has not changed even a bit since medieval times.

Wouldn't be surprised if people downvote my comment here too because they cannot accept that statement.
