Reaction to Shitler's threat from Dems?

[tazkcmo]

I googled it but haven't found any official statements from any of our more prominent members. Any DUers heard anything? Thanks in advance!

1. Haven't heard any Dem response yet either

Someone should be shouting it out and demanding the Republicans condemn Trump's remarks. Put the onus on them for a change.

2. I'm hoping they're meeting.

I hope our leaders are huddling together now and taking this very seriously. At a minimum this is a sign of mental illness and unfitness for office and at worse, the stirring of a civil war "pot".

3. Mazie Hirono just raised this on Chris Hayes

Hayes will discuss with other guests shortly

[Dem2]

4. She said that it encourages people to commit illegal acts ... violence

Understated, but I think appropriate for now...

5. By the time Rachel and Lawrence come on it will get lots of response

He won't get away with this one

[Dem2]

6. In a just world, he would be impeached for this statement alone

We are so far off course right now, it's maddening...

7. Agree - the President of the United States just stated that he has the police and army on his side

forget the bikers for the moment - that is absolutely crazy, divisive and authoritarian.

8. He is such a damn disgrace to the presidency and the US. Far too much is tolerated!!! n/t

9. Agree also

Real action needs to be taken if for no other reason than to send a strong message but that would not be enough, imho.

Without meaning to criticize Speaker Pelosi, I think he's suddenly made himself "worth it".
