It could have been way way worse,

Imagine if DC had open carry.

Imagine if they hadn't found those Molotov cocktails, malaise, they would have tried to burn it down.

Imagine if the Senator from Maryland had not called his friend the governor of Maryland and asked him to deploy the National Guard. We learned that the Secretary of Defense that Trump just appointed would not answer his phone to authorize it.

Benghazi had 4 Americans die at a government building. We had 2 years of investigation, we had numerous Congressional hearings. 5 people died at a government building, it's time we do what Republicans would do, the same fucking thing they did for Benghazi.
