They think mash-up videos depicting the slaughter of Democratic politicians are "hilarious".

I have no sympathy for these traitors.

We're watching justice, long overdue, finally visiting itself on your hero's pointy little head, Dan. Hilarious, yes, but outweighed by the grim satisfaction of seeing a corrupt, evil person getting what's coming to him at last.

How anyone could have thought putting that fucking asshole in power was a good idea is beyond me. It’s a disgrace to the country and doesn’t speak well of the people here at all. We look ridiculous. We are ridiculous.

That his nonsense continues unabated does not bode well for this country at all. Nearly the entire Republican Party is aping his fascist ways and we’re doomed if they ever regain power, which is highly likely.

I’m not laughing. This frightens me more than ever. I wanted this feeling of dread to end and it doesn’t look like it will anytime soon.

That a man of such low morals and character, such a lifelong cheat and scumbag, was elected as the president. I am upset that this idiot thought he could take documents, flout the law, and put the country at risk for his own aggrandizement. I am disgusted that SO MANY Conservatives supported and STILL support him.

So, no I don't find it hilarious.

I am however, experiencing a great amount of satisfaction and pleasure that Trump and those around him are experiencing the fear that they are about to be brought to justice.
