Charles P Pierce "He doesn't care if she gets killed."

[kpete]

“Special thanks to Representative Omar of Minnesota. Oh, I forgot. She doesn’t like Israel. I forgot. I’m so sorry." Trump to RJC crowd, singling out Omar one day after a man was arrested for threatening to kill her and calling her a "terrorist."

1. This is not acceptable behavior. NOW WHO IS GOING TO TELL HIM???

she will die by some MAGA piece of shit thinking he’s doing tRumps will.

[delisen]

3. Good question.

[Larrybanal]

8. and they will be

and why would anyone tell him anything...he knows everything already the best of anyone on the planet

[The Mouth]

11. As if anyone telling him anything has ever done shit?

Well, maybe ass-kissing penetrates past the eardrums; and the sound of a cash register. Not much else, though.

Seriously, I mean WTF? I disagree, maybe vehemently, with Congressperson Omar on some policies, but anything other than a genuinely shocked and stridently disavowed response to a nutter threatening her is disgusting. We can argue over 'is this a Republic or a Democracy' all day, but in no case should our elected representatives, even the ones we think morons and/or pure evil, be endangered in the public forum representing their constituents.

[tclambert]

13. He won't listen. He barely listens to what he says himself.

How many times has he said the opposite of what he just said five minutes earlier?

(Maybe if Putin told him he would listen. But Putin won't. He doesn't much care if political opponents die from unnatural causes.)

[Fritz Walter]

17. Maybe First Skank Melanoma could say something

Y'know, like "Be Best."

But then, little donnie would probably punch her in the face, and she'd have to go to the hospital for treatment of a kidney condition again.

[KPN]

22. Pelosi will tell him. Watch. Other Ds will tell

him, some journalists. But not one single f’ing slimy cowardly R.

[NewJeffCT]

31. If somebody tries to kill her

Trump will be thrilled

Remember how cowed Congress when when Tom Daschle got a letter laced with anthrax?

[ck4829]

2. K&R

[JI7]

5. not only that but he is calling on someone to do it.

[MyOwnPeace]

6. And this time............

there's no offer to pay legal costs (not that he would anyhow).

[CousinIT]

7. She's a female. Female lives are of no value to the GOP. n/t

[MadDAsHell]

26. To be transparent here, female lives are of no value to her own religion. nt

[Eyeball_Kid]

27. You're not being transparent. You're expressing a cultural bias.

Islam as a general religion does not devalue women. There are sects within Islam that DO show a lack of regard for women's rights based upon parochial beliefs not necessarily emphasized in the whole of the Koran. In the same way, sects of Christianity have asserted that a woman's place is in the home, and that women are not to usurp the authority of the husband, and that they are to obey their husband's expectations and demands. Institutional inequality between the genders are not the exclusive domain of certain sects of Islam.

[Evolve Dammit]

10. I agree with Charles Pierce. He's hoping his "base" becomes violent.

It's like Reagan after the Kent State shootings when only 4 were reported dead. "I wish they would have killed more of them." Same f'ing GOP, then and now. Whoever has an alternate viewpoint, opinion, or dares to try to challenge the rich white guys should be killed. They are a soulless party.

[SleeplessinSoCal]

12. please provide proof of Reagan saying that.

I was actually on campus at UCLA at the time. I don't recall it, nor can I find that quote. This is the closest I could get.

https://pastdaily.com/2015/05/05/reagan-has-a-word-about-kent-state-may-5-1970/

I don't think it helps us to expand our circle of anger beyond the tangible.

Reagan Fact: "The MMBA was signed by a former union president. No, it wasn't Jerry Brown. It was Ronald Reagan. By signing the MMBA, Governor Reagan made California the second state in the nation to allow public sector collective bargaining."

We need to talk about that for today's woes.

[Evolve Dammit]

21. Cannot find; sorry. I recall it was a staffer in the room when he received the news.

[SleeplessinSoCal]

29. I suspect this was like the game "telephone".

Paraphrasing downward maybe.

[Evolve Dammit]

30. The staffer was interviewed and "heard" that statement from Reagan. Sorry I can't recall the name.

I appreciate your diligence for accuracy. I was appalled when I heard it, and wish I would have noted/ recorded it and delved deeper.

[Hekate]

14. And if God forbid she were actually dead, Trump would still talk trash about her ...

...and use her as a punchline. Because that is who he is.

[onetexan]

15. that was his intent, call it out in code so his fanatical minions can act on his words

this pathetic man is dangerous and is continually driving wedges between Americans by the day. And yet we can't do anything about it. Travesty.

[lark]

16. No, it's actually worse. He would revel in it if she were killed.

He'd absolutely caper with glee like the orange shitgibbon no brains he is.

[disndat]

18. I don't understand

why the outcry over Trump's ignominious policies Israelis /Palestinian problem is called anti-Semitic instead of anti-Israel.
One can be anti-Israel and not anti-Semitic. This is a tragic political situation that calls for great US/Israel leadership.

[cp]

19. Pretty sure most of 45's Secret Service would prefer to protect her

than Orange Bloat

[certainot]

20. trump echoes talk radio and here is a list of recent limbaugh hannity references to omar

i searched limbaugh transcripts and 'omar' and got a lot of hits. limbaugh is 'subtle' in sending /suggesting death threats but knows what he's doing, been doing it for 30 years

"news.iheart.com/featured/rush-limbaugh/content" +omar on IXQ search engine got all this below - they've been attacking her and dems and the left continue to be surprised........

talk radio is very vulnerable thanks to recent developments in artificial intelligence and the ease of digitizing, monitoring and listing advertisers means dems /left can easily destroy the talk radio monopoly. with little action - protests and boycotts - the ad industry will have to start asking political talk radio advertisers if they really want to support trump and global warming denial on those stations - market rejection of trump radio, universities ending their support for it, will do the rest.

here's a few hits, and a search re cortez or AOC will also get a lot of hits - dems cannot collectively say they are getting their backs - and shouldn't complain the about dem party being too far right

[Perseus]

23. Can she report it? Can she put a claim against the buffoon?

I think that should be a just course of action. She should be able to make the asshole responsible if anything were to happen to her. He is inciting violence against her.

[Karadeniz]

25. Shameful that we have a system that allowed the bottom of the barrel to rise to the top.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

28. stop giving that pile of shit ANY tv time!

Reporters should summarize what that asshole shits out, but never put him on tv.
