so she's trying to draw in a more conservative audience.

What would be interesting is a good comparison of how right supporters vs left supporters have responded over the years. And go back to the Kent massacre, Timothy McVeigh, Kennedy murders and Martin Luther King, Charlottesville and now this.

Meanwhile, what did our side do? Make some of their leaders uncomfortable at dinner time. Seriously.

Trump keeps his base on the edge. Each rally, each tweet, every comment keeps them tottering. No surprise when one of them takes the plunge.

Whereas they shout nonsense at people trying to protect all of us. So, it's not merely a difference in tactics.

who the bomber might be. She couldn't say republican or conservative. She had to say non-left.

Where are these extremists on the left she's talking about? What I'm seeing is extremists on the right, & the rest of us, people on both the right and left who see clearly what is happening.

Peaceful Protests and Public demonstrations from the left and beatings and pipe bombs from the right, you really don't need to be a journalist.

It's malpractice to somehow equate and justify terrorism and public discontent for policy.

Told me that just last week, Ruhle was on there still on the "Let's criticize Bill Clinton some more" bandwagon, even though drunken/blacked out, sexually assaultingnaugh is ON the Supreme Court, and even though we have a self-professed pussy-grabbing, 20 women-assaulting ruskie piece of shit occupying the White House. I'm so damn sick of this mostly corporate media trying to equate Dems to thuglicans who are literally guilty of still trying to take people's health care/pre-existing coverage away from them which COULD literally kill them.

Yeah right Ruhle, Dems are trying to take away people's health care, SS, Medicare and Medicaid.

Everybody who's received a package have been right-wing boogeymen (or women). Even if you try to say that some of the left hated Obama and Hillary and DWS, that still wouldn't explain Soros and Brennan, both of which have been only Trumper targets AFAIK.

A left winger wouldn't even think of sending a bomb much less hand delivering one to George Soros. Also CNN as a target suggests it is a RWNJ.

Nobody has spewed more hate at CNN than Trump. I'm only surprised that NYT hasn't gotten one (yet).
