In reply to the discussion: Is anyone else embarrassed today? [View all]Metaphorical
(2,025 posts)40. To be blunt
This is a man who has incited violence in order to overturn an election, who has done everything in his power to stoke the fires, and who feels absolutely no remorse in using stochastic violence for his own end. The only reason that he is running again for president is so that he can skip out of multiple fraud, rape, and treason charges and the only reason he has a hope in hell of winning is because he's promising every billionaire out there the keys to the kingdom if he wins, promises that he has no more intent to keep than any other promise he's made.
I do not believe in assassination. It indicates the breakdown of democracy and the rule of law. Having said that, if someone succeeds in taking him out, I won't lose a lot of sleep.

Considering that the AP got a shot of his home in Hawaii today. The bumper sticker on his work truck isn't worn out.
