35. They're leading themselves to their own slaughter

If tRump steals another election, don't think for a second there won't be dozens more Khashoggis--only this time, it'll be happening on US soil.

And guess what? Not a damn thing will be done about it! Just more gaslighting, lies, and faux concern from barr and the GOP.

I wonder if they'll continue "both sides"ing the issue when it's their reporters being poisoned/killed?
