Trump Campaign blames Dems for Brad Parscale's problems. (alleged suicidal wife beater)

https://www.rawstory.com/2020/09/trump-campaign-blames-dems-for-ex-campaign-manager-parscales-reported-self-harm-threat/

So the Dems are to blame for Brad being an alleged suicidal wife beater? Politics of personal responsibility at its best!

Link to statement:

To be fair, the statement came out before the wife beating allegations. But still. His wife called the police so the possibility of it being a domestic abuse situation should have been considered before putting out a statement like that.

Well, probably. But it's likely to make a few more on the edge of MAGAT-land just sit out this election.

A cop friend was allowed to come and talk him down. Psychiatric hold for x number of hours.

His wife has bruises. He menaced her with a gun.

If he were black or brown..............................
