Each of these moronic douchebags should be automatically disqualified for any public office.

how hard is it for all of them to at least come up with a generic comment like this. Must be harder than I think it is.

Although I am surprised that they are not bothered that a police officer was killed. Have to admit that Cruz came up with a decent comment and didn't have to worry about upsetting the NRA crowd.

Since the repub base contains the rabid anti-choicers, it's going to be tough for them to regard the officer as both at the same time.

Trump and his team can't keep their mouths shut, so I thought for sure he would be the first spewing about it. Plus, every insult or lie that he utters seems to increase his poll numbers.

it goes into an area that he has no experience or probably opinion. He doesn't give a shit about people that might be killed.
