Grooming MAGA to the idea that it is ok to kill people if you are President Trump.
Hopefully, there will never be a President Trump.

Murdering political opponents is no big deal because all leaders kill; it's part of what real leadership is.

Shut these traitors down! As for Tucker Carlson? He should stay in Russia.

In their quest for power and wealth.

Like in the US, the gun murders, the covid deaths.
Poverty, lack of medical coverage, etc.

The GOP here in the US will kill as many people as it takes to get what they want.

of certain far right media figures--and then claim presidential immunity--Tucker would see that as "leadership?"

Every US President has ordered deaths.

I used to say that the President is who we hire to murder for us. That's why it's so important not to elect fucking Sociopathic monsters or feckless dipshits to that office.
