    I’m a flaming liberal, but I’m honestly revolted that, as I write this, your comment has a bunch of upvotes and no downvotes.

      This man wants to do things that will make me and many people i love dead or suffering. How do you not understand how we could feel this way?

      It’s almost like principles define existential enemies or something, two things you will never understand before you go extinct

      You libs drone all the time in every media how the guy is an enemy of democracy, second coming of Hitler and needs to be stopped for any price. Yet you are “revolted” when someone taken it seriously.

      Do you not realize how terrible it is that he missed? You of all people as a “flaming liberal” should be the most angry. This essentially secures trumps presidency, its the best thing that could have happened to his campaign.

        First of all, that’s bullshit. As I said in another thread:

        The electorate is viscerally polarized, and very few people are on the fence about who to vote for - maybe some undecided about whether they’ll vote at all. I can’t imagine there are many people who are going to switch from Biden to Trump because of this, or who will even go from undecided to Trump. It makes no sense.

        Second, my political activism stops short of murder. Apparently that doesn’t go far enough for you. That doesn’t make me a troll.

          Dont get me wrong, assassinations are stupid and rarely accomplish much of value. No single human is responsible for the state of our society, it is much more institutional than that. Only a dismantling of the current systems could actually inact change. HOWEVER, if trump was murdered I would gloat and I feel no shame in that.

          Also them missing is gonna make MAGA people really annoying for a while
