— FBI hatred for candidate Trump practically beyond belief – Russ Sloan (DIERSEN: What do you say to those who talk and act like they hate Republicans, but nevertheless, they cast Republican primary ballots? How many crossover voters, that is, voters who cast Republican primary ballots, but vote for Democrats in general elections, that is, voters who are Democrat plants, Libertarian plants, Green plats, or RINOs, are there in your precinct, in your municipality, in your township/ward, in your county, in Illinois, and in America? I believe there are about 30 in my DuPage County Milton Township Precinct 9 in Wheaton and they are well-organized. Of course, they do not display yard signs for Republican candidates in general elections. Far too many of them treat me very rudely.)

— Trump Attacks LeBron James in Tweet Ahead of Crucial Ohio Election – DAVID Z. MORRIS (DIERSEN: Are you a “private citizen?” According to my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes, a) I am NOT a “private citizen” and b) I am a “public figure.” They stress that I have been a Republican Precinct Committeeman since 1999 and the GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000. They stress that I was a TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman 2005-2012, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member 2003-2011, Milton Township Republican Central Committee webmaster 2008-2010 and 2000-2004, Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee member 2003-2007, American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board member 2001-2004, GAO employee 1980-1997, IRS employee 1971-1980, etc. They hint/imply/argue/shout that because I am a “public figure,” they can defame, libel, and slander me because I “cannot succeed in a lawsuit on incorrect harmful statements in the United States unless there is proof that the writer or publisher acted with actual malice by knowing the falsity or by reckless disregard for the truth. The legal burden of proof in defamation actions is thus higher in the case of a public figure than in the case of an ordinary person.” SEE: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_figure Do you agree with my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes that I am a “public figure?”)

The President of the United States had nothing better to do late on a Friday night than grab his phone and call a private citizen “dumb” in a tweet. The leader of the free world did that. What a small man he is.)
