When the shooting erupted at the Walmart in El Paso, Texas, a mother and father died trying to protect their baby. The dead man's brother and his wife are caring for their nephew. When the Trumps visited El Paso to express their concern for the shooting, they met the couple and Melania held the baby. The adoptive uncle also pushed back against the liberal criticism of Trump's visit. Now they are getting death threats.

I might not be a big Trump fan but yes criticism has to have some logic. I wander how people can stoop down to such lows and can politicize any situation, no matter how grave it can be. You ought to have political difference in a healthy democracy but threatening someone for their political preference is not the right thing.

It's called 'Trump Derangement Syndrome'. Some people hate Trump so much that they respond like this.

@garysibi I can relate to it. People get blinded my hatred and shun logic before commenting.

Until social media comes, nobody didn't take notice at such fools.

Social media hasn't changed people. It has just given them a platform from which they can spew their venom. They've always been around, we just didn't know about it.

@garysibi I know. Now we can hear them, before we didn't notice them.

This I think is the height of perversion in the politics! Such people are mentally not sound and they are threat to the society in which they live in!

When Trump put his thumbs up right there you could see his complete disconnect with reality
