  2. Probably just another MAGA psy op: trump lovers ginning up the pity-victim narrative.

  3. 🤷‍♂️
    Thanks for letting us know, I guess?

    The American people, including immigrants, LGBT, women, people of color, have been targeted with violent threats by the incoming president and members of the cabinet too. Seems to be the norm lately.

  4. I’m concerned. I’m sure they’ve learned their lesson though. I offer my thoughts and prayers.

    Anyway….

  5. wasnt Trump the same one that said “so what?” when he heard about Pence being in danger on Jan. 6? Hmm. interesting. I wonder if he cares now?

  6. These guys are hurtling america towards authoritarianism, not sure how they expect this to go down without pushback

  7. Hilarious seeing them get the same treatment their voter base has given to everyone else.

  11. What’s the usual conservative response to these kind of situations? Am I supposed to go with “F your feelings” or “Thoughts and prayers”?

  12. So they guy who normalized violence against the left is… upset that violence is being normalized against the right?

    Thoughts and prayers.

  15. That’s so messed up and unfair, everyone knows it’s only okay when Trump cabinet appointees issue violent threats to millions of American citizens, if you do it the other way around it’s just wrong.

  16. Considering several of his cabinet picks have advocated for political violence by removing healthcare, and making very real threats of rounding up people in to concentration camps, if you’re hoping I’ll dig deep and find some sympathy I think you’ll find what I have is reserved for people more deserving right now.

  18. Remember when trump and supporters mocked the Pelosi’s after they were attacked by that crazy man? This is why I literally don’t care. They are reaping what they sowed.

  19. So violent threats are only okay when they come from male, white, heterosexual, Christian nazis? Got it.

  20. Elon has been doxing government employees, and threatening Alexander Vindman with death by execution. So seems like the norm, huh?

  23. I guess, normalizing threats on political opponents is all of a sudden now a problem…who would have thought that all that rhetoric could have been a problem? 

     I dunno maybe someone should have done something about that before it was normalized.  Too bad we couldn’t possibly have seen this coming….in 2015? I could say even more years but the sharp rise in rhetoric alone then was enough to probably stomp on the breaks but the republicans seem to have given it a complete embrace. 

     Guess we will just have to live with this “new” threat on the government.  I guess we should just increase gun ownership to prevent the government from taking our rights.

  24. Oh no, bad things are happening to terrible people, however shall we cope.

  27. While targeting people with violence is absolutely wrong, it seems a tad bit ironic that these MAGA politicians, who have no problem with their base making death threats against anyone who disagrees with MAGA, are now upset about threats and violence against them.
