Remember, Trump incites violence. A year ago:

If you think that there’s some link between these comments and the shooters action I’ll happily take the other side of that bet.

lol. Yeah you won’t find that particular quote framed on the bedroom wall of the shooter. You’d win the bet.

Reminiscent of the claims back in the BLM riots that the most lawless acts were committed by people with “no official ties to BLM”. Like so many people carry around BLM ID cards, so it means something when someone doesn’t have one.

Now do Gabby Giffords/Sarah Palin.

That’s actually quite a compliment. “No way is Trump that awesome”. Mr Wise does not live up to his name.

There is another completely different type of foul reaction….Those pointing to Trump’s “miraculous” escape as an annointing

More like piss poor shooting. Range was short for a rifle. Aim was for the head, apparently (the banner in front of Trump covers a bullet-proof panel), instead of the "sniper's triangle". Probably a massive adrenaline dump caused the misses.

Note that the Secret Service sniper did not miss. One shot, and Mr. Crooks no longer had a head.

I disagree with Kelly Paul. Not about being mad that Rep Pelosi's daughter tweeted that, but calling out the Rep Pelosi for her daughters tweet.

Her daughter is probably 40 or 50 years old and her own person. People love their kids, even when they do stupid things. May disagree with them, may wish they never acted the way they did, but without direct evidence, I don't think it is fair. Rep. Pelosi has done enough/said enough stupid things in her life, but this is not one of them.

This is not the DPRK, where if somebody does something wrong, two generations on either side are also guilty and punished accordingly.

Christine Pelosi is a Democratic operative in California's Democrat Party. You bet your sweet ass Nancy Pelosi has power over her daughter's public writings.

And that's precisely the point. Pelosi's daughter rejoiced in the attack on a US Senator.

A now-deleted Facebook post by a staffer of Mississippi's lone Democrat congressman appeared to support the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump on Saturday.

The deleted post by Jacqueline Marsaw, a field director for U.S. Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Mississippi, said "I don't condone violence but please get you some shooting lessons so you don't miss next time ooops [sic] that wasn't me talking."

At least we’re only seeing posts from people nobody’s heard of.

But I doubt that will last.

@George-K @Jolly I agree that what Rep Pelosi's daughter wrote was terrible and she (the daughter) should be condemned for that. But to assume that the mother pre-checks things that her 40 or 50 years old daughter post on social media (especially when she was Speaker of the Congress at that time).

I get it - it is perception, but still..........
