Their slander has undoubtedly been widespread, but it's fairly clear that the focus has been on one man above all else.
Yes, and they're setting themselves up to perpetrate atrocities against 75 million citizens of the US because the voted for that one man.
It's utterly stupid, and I agree that if it hadn't been Trump it would eventually have been someone else, but it's Trump for the moment.
He's the key to the whole thing though. They've built him up to be Hitler 2.0, which enables them to take the next step and say things like the tweet that Greenwald replied to.
True but I think the biggest reason is that he's not part of the establishment.
Anyone who seriously threatens the establishment will be treated the same way.
