But no one was spraying her with bear spray, tasing her or beating her with flag poles and stolen police shields, so maybe not.

the "both sides do it" card.

But you're right, she is totally lacking in empathy for others and probably did not see any connection between herself getting swarmed and Jan. 6. If she did have a moment of self-reflection, I'm sure she would say her treatment today was worse than Jan. 6!

understand the desire of some to silence others in this country. I find it to be short sighted, and counterproductive.
Standing by and allowing these type of people to say what they say does far more damage to them. Trying to silence or shout them down makes us look petty, and it makes them appear vindicated.

She had absolutely no business being there.

This case is a New York matter, and the people of New York had every right to run this interloper out of their city. She is welcome to go spew her toxic garbage somewhere else.

“Business” here referring to fundraising and otherwise exploiting the hard-of-thinking to advance her career. From what I’ve seen so far, she’s failed to capture the attention she sought through this venture.

But wait! Let’s see how Faux Gnus shovels her story this evening.

This was purely about a show of support for Trump via physical presence. A loud, noisy show of a decided lack of support for Trump, and MTG herself, is the perfect counter message.

exactly what I'm talking about. Someone asserts their position is the only one that is true and just, then proceeds to squash the rights of someone else. Not cool. Not cool at all.
It's all fun and games until suddenly the rule makers change and we realize that they are the opposition. Then it's not so cute or funny anymore.

I wonder what does thought was going to happen today. Did she really not know that TRUMP is deeply hated in New York? Did she actually think thousands of Trump trolls were going to show up to protect the indictment and fawn on her every word? Questions, I have so many!
