It is counterintutive to think that Trump can...

just go ahead and incite threats of violence against the media without repercussions.

We know that his words should not have any weight at all, but they do have weight...to weak people.

What this shows is that if there is no enforcement of the law, no enforcement against harmful actions...then law only exists for us lowlifes.

FUCKING INFURIATING.

Think of John Wilkes Booth or James Earl Ray and then upto the MAGAbomber

It's fragile white males who feel their way of life being threatened and hence they lash out. Trump brings it out

Google "male fragility+trump voters" they did a study of it. Very interesting topic
