They're going to be insufferable about this. We all know that.

Absolutely no one in his or her right mind would want to turn Donald Trump into some sort of martyr.

Oy.

…you had people calling in to liberal talk shows about how “we” were going to “get all of you for this.” I can only imagine what today’s cultists might do.

Authoritarians/wannabees tend to have a higher chance of not dying of old age.

Let Trump's mouth do its work.

I sincerely doubt we're going to see him calling for gun control.

Trump is chaos.

when you're constantly urging people to run out and spend their money on fucking guns. Bed. Made. Lie.

For the most part I have avoided turning on the news. I am sure garbage like Faux News and conservative print media will run this 24-7 till the election. That's why I am hoping that congressional dems fall in line behind President Biden. We have to stay united, now more than ever.

Why be insufferable, that’s what they ALL want.But sometimes things… backfire.

I am sorry for the loss of life. His cult have all been continually lied to by Fox, by Trump, even by the Republican Congress and SCOTUS. It was a senseless death.
