What is happening in this country that the solution for the right wing to rid themselves of a politician they don't like is kidnap and murder?? TFG has unleashed this violence, how many Democrats - or those who oppose TFG (Adam Kinzinger, Dr. Fauci) - are faced with death threats??!

I doubt he could plan a successful trip to the car wash.

Hopefully, a long term in prison will be just that a l...o...n...g term in prison.
