Veterans remember your oath. "Support and defend the Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic".

The Republican party owns this for so, so many reason. For letting Trump spew hate speech. For letting Trump incite violence. For the travel ban citing potential terrorist from Muslim countries. For so many other blatant examples of hate centered in the Trump White House.

The evidence is clear the threats are coming from within our borders. And the president is the one with blood on his hands.
