867-5309.

I'd like to see a decisive statement from Nancy soon [View all]

The statements have been very general and classy. But if she made an open denunciation of the MAGA crowd and their hate that led to this it would be a powerful thing. As the wife of the victim, third in line to the presidency, and the target of an assassination attempt she is in a very unique position to do this.

And, yes, dammit, BEFORE the mid-terms. They should pay at the polls, too.
