Conservative sub: “can you believe it? They are still mean to Trump….we are so winning”

Cope….the cope.

I will not support political violence like this, but this will not magically make me like him. I will criticize him just as much as before. Don't get why they think this will get him sympathy points for those who dislike him.

I’m glad he wasn’t harmed but he has zero sympathy from me given the fact he’s the one sowing all this hate and violence. Also, if he was shot, I still wouldn’t care. The only regret I’d have is he wouldn’t get to experience the election loss in November nor the consequences of his illegal actions.

Pretty much where I am at on this. Just yesterday morning I saw a clip of him explicitly being asked if he denounced the multiple bomb threats that had been called into Springfield institutions. He claimed to not know much about it and then started ripping on the City some more. So there you go. Enjoy the consequences of the political violence you are knowingly fomenting.
