nwhikerRepublicans on the media today (first reactions, mainly...) Squawk squawk, both sides! Squawk, both sides!
Yeah, no.
NSM.
The angry, hateful, violent rhetoric, despite the totally made up "Democrat mob" and "antifa" is all coming from the Republican side. Period.
Clintons, Obamas.Maxine Waters (*) (**). Maxine Waters. Gov. Cuomo. Soros. Eric Holder. CNN.
(*) Reported then retracted. Same for Kamala Harris, which I hadn't heard until just not.
(**) Reported again. Re-adding Representative Waters.
Looks like, despite what many people on twitter are saying, that Soros was in the group because liberal not because of antisemitism. I'm not sure that makes me feel better or worse.
But again, let's not pretend that this happened in a vacuum. It happened in an era where the Malignant Mango in the White House called the press "the enemy of the people" and praises a politician who body slammed a reporter. It comes at a time when Democrats are called "crazy" and when women trying to be heard about sexual assault by people who are putting wannabe rapist on the Supreme Court for life are called a "mob".
At least nobody was hurt. So far. And I hope someone is watching Nancy Pelosi's mail very carefully.
I don't think there is enough left in this country for an "all of us" any longer.
Yeah, no.
