\"Original<\/a><\/p>\n

I can think of few things worse to call someone than a “traitor.”<\/p>\n

“Child molester” comes to mind. So does “murderer.”<\/p>\n

But the guy noted in this video link has decided that he is an “American patriot” and that a CNN news crew comprises “traitors.”<\/p>\n

He uttered that epithet at the end of a Donald J. Trump campaign rally where, I am guessing, the Republican Party presidential nominee had some unkind things to say about the media.<\/p>\n

The barbs Trump likely slung at the media got the requisite cheers from the crowd.<\/p>\n

And then it\u00a0produced this response from the self-described “American patriot,” who also felt the need to offer the middle-finger salute to the camera crew.<\/p>\n

Nice …<\/p>\n

Everyone’s entitled to their opinion.<\/p>\n\n
