Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) confirmed that Trumps impeachment defense will blame elected black leaders like Reps. Omar and Waters, and Sen. Cory Booker for inciting violence. Paul said, I think youre going to see the Trump defense play video of Rep. Maxine Waters telling crowds to mob Trump administration officials and attack them. Theyll probably show clips of Cory Booker saying get up in their face of these congress people. Youll probably see comments from Rep. Omar celebrating the violence that happened to me when I had six ribs broken and part of a lung removed.

Btw, I absolutely did NOT approve Waters' call to harass and create disruptive, nasty scenes wherever political adversaries went. Regardless of the righteousness of motive, those tactics cross the line to where the Pubs and Nasty Greene dwell, and of course no surprise at all that the ammunition they provide will be warped into their defense construction.
