Darrell Issa: Dems Are "Overplaying a Lot of Things, Including the Deaths of These People..."

Darrell Issa is a traitor, but worse, he's a
goddamn ghoul.


After anchor Maria Bartiromo asked Issa if an impeachment trial––which would likely not take place until after President-elect Joe Biden takes office––is worth pursuing, Issa said Democrats are “overplaying a lot of things, including the deaths of these people on Capitol Hill.”

“It’s probably similar to shutting off the Twitter of somebody after his presidency is essentially over. It’s kicking when he’s down, it’s getting rid of 88 million people who follow and listen to the president,” he said.

“There’s no question at all that the liberals saw an opportunity, a misstep by the president that they’re going to overplay, and they’re overplaying it as we speak. They’re overplaying a lot of things, including the deaths of these people on Capitol Hill,” he continued. “It was a terrible event, terrible things, people need to be punished. But they’re trying to use it to imply there’s only one side that has violence and completely ignoring all of last year and the unchecked violence from the left.”

Just ready to bash his head in with some 200 year old marble bust of Ben Franklin. Would he say, "please don't do it," or would he say, "go ahead, it's nothing we intend to overplay afterward?"

in any way condoned by the party leadership itself or even a large percentage of rank & file Dems. Rs always try to pull this shit and the press let's them get away with it.

Even before he incited his fascist minions to insurrection, Pissolini was praising Nazis, inviting Ted--if Obama wins a second term I'll be dead or in jail cuz I told him to suck on my machine gun--Nugent to the white house, and retweeting the most vile & violent RWers he stumbled upon.

Meanwhile, Dem leadership is never exactly cozy with the progressive wing of the party and outright (and rightly) disowns the anarchists & antifa street fighters, Rs try to pin on us.

This extremely important difference is seldom, if ever, pointed out by the M$M, nor ever in the slightest acknowledged by RWers.

We need to point this out, since no one else will!

If there was a Democrat in the White House and the same lack on inaction took place, the Trumpanzies would be screaming for justice.
