I am very disappointed in the suggestions put forth by Tim and Sam. Honestly, I am sick and tired of hearing that it is up to the Democrats to “be the adults”, to talk about our political moment in a way doesn’t upset the other side. I call BS!

Trump has been encouraging political violence since 2015 and now he is the recipient of the violence he calls for. That is NOT the democrats fault.

As long as Tim, Sam and a million others continue to lean on dems to “do the right things” while not expecting responsible behavior from republicans, then republicans will continue to do whatever they please.

STOP “both siding” this issue.

Oh, Sue... I'm so totally with you! And while some on the Right are today calling for "everyone to take a deep breath" and back away from violence and violent talk, let's remember that the violence and the violent talk began with THEM. And let us always remember that backing away from violence was NOT Trump's message he expressed with blood on his face--> it was instead, "FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT" said with a raised fist and a violent face.

Yeah, that crowd fist pumping and shouting along with him was pretty alarming. Where does that lead? Nowhere good.
