    A deranged Rachel Maddow fan tried to kill multiple republican members of Congress.

    But, let’s concentrate on the mythical influence Trump has on folks seeking to kill members of the media.

    Did you even read the story? He was using the "Fake News" bullshit.

    I don’t know how to break this to you, accept to tell you that if the issue had overwhelmingly support among voters, the Democrats wouldn’t have caved less than 48 hours into the shutdown.

    They caved because of what they were hearing from their constituents.

    Don’t believe the CNN polls. Watch what the Dems do.

    Chuck Schumer is worried about defending seats in Montana, North Dakota, West Virginia, Ohio, and Missouri.

    They just threw the Dreamers overboard in an attempt to hold those seats.

    She's fine as far as I know. But you're saying the crap Trump stirred up against her, including death threats, was OK?

    And your Maddow comparison is fucking stupid. People might not agree with her politics. But she's calm and certainly didn't encourage anyone to attack government officials.

    Trump not-so-subtly promotes violence against the media.

    Can we believe Fox News polls?

    “Moreover, 63 percent of Trump voters favor granting Dreamers citizenship.”

    Fox News Poll: 83 percent support pathway to citizenship for illegal immigrants

    Foolhardy belief that American institutional norms can be saved through cooperation.

    Let’s make no mistake about this. If you permit, further or ignore bias against people based on their race out of a sense of “opportunism” or expedience or ignorance or whatever, you’re a racist. Because “it makes sense politically” to fuck over dark-skinned people isn’t some sort of carve out.
