'murderer'
A spokesperson for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Thursday excoriated Republicans after former President Donald Trump called a Capitol police officer a "murderer" as he continued to whitewash the deadly January 6 insurrection that he incited.
"The former President's threat against a US Capitol Police officer is only the latest in a long line of vile Republican attacks on the officers who risked their lives to protect the U.S. Capitol on January 6th. In recent weeks, Republicans have slandered these officers as 'executioners' and 'murderers' and insulted their intelligence and integrity on national television," spokesperson Robyn Patterson said in a statement.
"Enough is enough," Patterson said.
"Officers present that day who have called out the partisan efforts to downplay a violent insurrection have been subjected to death threats and racist abuse. No member of House Republican leadership has bothered to condemn this harassment or speak out in support of these officers," Patterson went on to say.

(17,530 posts)The shows have to become more and more outrageous to keep up the attention of their nutty numbers. This will only get worse as time goes by. The Romans kept the masses pacified with food and circus, the Republicans are trying to do it without the food.

I think the Republican media strategy is complete: propaganda & bad faith arguments at every level, to an audience of information-bubbled, gullible cretins.

(117 posts)I have been calling Trump a murderer since he ignored the pandemic till he got ill, offerinig all weird forms of cures and saying the virus was just like flu?, since starting the Capitol riots in the first place, for ignoring Puerto Rico's call for help!!!!! If you charged him with all the deaths he has committed he would never live long enough to serve his sentences. No, that cop was merely trying to undue the damage this crazy man caused.

A billion dollar lawsiut against you when you know everything you've been saying is a lie will would slow the average person down. Trump, however, will double down. And I can't wait.
