3. He has been invisible, and he should be decrying the violent rhetoric
But we know he won't.

8. I have no use for him, but I do have an affinity for accuracy
At the time of the shooting he was in Caragena Colombia meeting with that country's president on trade and other matters. And he was wearing a button down shirt.

10. He will never speak or write one word unless he deems it in HIS
best interest. He has become a tired old political whore. Sad really.
