(51,609 posts)He loves it, he encourages it by instigating violence and even rewarding it. It is his fault. He is indirectly the cause. Anyone who says otherwise is full of BS. All fingers point to the NATIONALIST as the one and only reason for this at this time.

(3,479 posts)"According to a WH source, Trump privately fumed at having to condemn the foiled attacks. He felt his retweet of Pence's own half-assed condemnation was sufficient."
Trump wanted to ramp up the rhetoric leading into the election. He's likely pissed that this will stymy him.

Well, I would be, actually... But only insomuch as I never imagined he'd be smart enough to actually build a bomb, himself.
Or how to mail something.

(82,849 posts)An encouraging sign from the media; I hope it goes beyond a shrug of resignation and "Well, he had nothing to say when we asked him." Keep asking until he answers. Even if he says, "You've asked that question before." Remind him that he didn't answer the question, so you're asking again.
