Catch a few and give them ten years for domestic terrorism.

I was surprised to see Col Jack Jacobs being so frank on MSNBC this afternoon. He was not holding back with Trump. Totally disgusted with him - no political correctness there.

(22,651 posts)the troll attackers will never stop, this RW hate directed against mainly Ds who speak out against Trump is going to get worse over the next months & years.
They have to be exposed & charged with crimes- IN PUBLIC. Expose the threats and ask for the publics help to catch them & any group who promotes these attacks.

(15,234 posts)He was offensive with a statement that in its least critical interpretation was totally insensitive to deliberately hateful spite. I tend to call it spite by Trumps denial. Think about it directed to a young war widow, pregnant, on her way to collect her husbands body. It does not get lower than this. The monster has a head and a name Donald Trump.
