    I’m actually kinda relieved it was not someone who sincerely held Left-leaning ideals…anything that genuinely gives the Big Orange Idiot something to run his nonsense ‘with and on’ should be properly denigrated and chastised.

    Insinuating Trump gives a flying fuck who the actual murderer is. After all the lies Trump has spread, I would not assume the truth would matter to him now.

      While that may be true; it’s still a relief; because he can only stretch a lie so far.

      Eventually people who DO care will realize he’s lying about the murderer’s intentions or beliefs. That in and of itself puts egg on his face. Even if he is known to lie frequently and this is another one in the pile; it remains a lie. He cannot use the situation to truly legitimize his actions.

      As his actions cannot be legitimized by this situation; it enables more people to realize that his actions overall are not good; and may permit them to muster the courage necessary to stand against his tyranny.

        All evidence to the contrary. Those goalposts may as well be migratory.
