Jesus Fucking Christ, seriously? with all the bullshit going on right now, some idiot — apparently a registered Republican, of all things — opens fire on Donny Convict.
this morning, every establishment Democrat is denouncing political violence and wishing the best for Donny.

as for the Republicans, I wish I could say the same. but they’re not — they’re acting like a bunch of meth-tweaked monkeys right now, screaming incoherently and flinging their shit in all directions.

these grievance-babies are incapable of having a rational reaction to anything.

pretend-hillbilly J.D. Vance set down his glass of $500-a-bottle Chateau Lafite-Rothschild, picked up his phone and typed out the following paranoid fantasy.

“Today is not just some isolated incident. The central premise of the Biden campaign is that President Donald Trump is an authoritarian fascist who must be stopped at all costs. That rhetoric led directly to President Trump’s attempted assassination.”

of course, J.D. knows better than to pin the blame on Biden — he’s just being cynical as fuck, throwing red meat to the MAGA cultists while at the same time showing Dear Leader what a loyal Vice President he’ll be. maybe they won’t hang him.

The overreach began within minutes. The flying monkey bullshit is now on display. Republicans don't know how to act like rational mature adults. Everything is CosPlay and Drama-Rama for them. I sincerely believe that the American people do not want to go back to living in the Republican funhouse. I think there is going to be backlash against the overplayed hand and the histrionic display we are beginning to witness.

Joe Biden has an opportunity here and I think it will come naturally to him. Show the nation what leadership and dignity looks like. It won't impress the MAGA cult, but the rest of America will find solace and relief in it.

Although I usually don't agree with Bernie, he is right about this: "Politics should be boring."

My daughter says she has seen comments on "social media" blaming the Secret Service because the female agent was not tall ehough to shield Trump.

Someone tell me -- after watching the video of the event, how many MAGAts in the crowd did you see leaping up to shield the MF??

According to MAGAt-on-the-Street interviews, they all dropped to their knees in prayer.

LOL. Not one of them did that, according to footage being shown now.

THAT was tRump's concern
He was afraid that someone would see his shoe-lifts
Notice, if you will, how tall the Secret Service guys are vs. Donnie John
Without shoe-lifts, he is shorter

Is the on-site reporter trying to broadcast, while some unshaven, gap-toothed redhat pranced around behind her, screaming insults and flipping the bird.
