You, Mitch. You and your cowardly complicit crew of Trump toadies have wrought this. You GOP own this.

Shut up McConnell, you dirty traitor. YOU and every single Republican are responsible for this. Sick, un-American traitors the lot of them.

Talk about an Oct surprise! Way to go GOP. Just because they might not have known about it does not mean they were not complicit in bringing it about. Let them prostrate themselves in an attempt to distance from what they have wrought. We see you and we know you.

ā€œattempted acts of domestic terrorismā€

Attempted? Is it only domestic terrorism if the bombs explode and kill some requisite minimum number of people?

McConnell added:

"Let me note that our friends on the other side of the aisle have engaged in the most disreputable tactics imaginable and threatened our sacred institutions with mob violence. They have willfully jeopardized our security and attempted to sully the reputations and ruin the careers of decent Americans with their heinous and unwarranted attacks.

"They have refused to compromise with us – by which I mean to say they have refused to lend their support to the proposals we have developed without their input – and have consistently impeded our reasonable legislative efforts to restore our nation to the greatness it once enjoyed and will enjoy again.

"The relentless attacks by our Democrat friends on all decent Americans have revealed them to be the lowest possible form of political life and forced us to change time-honored rules in order to assure that neither they nor their ignorant, ill-informed and frequently illegal supporters will ever have any say in the conduct of our government.

"So please believe me when I say I understand the justifiable anger that all decent Americans may feel against our Democrat colleagues and the news outlets that support them.

But I always condemn violence. I mean, violence is bad and I would never say or do anything to justify or encourage it."

But, but … didn’t the mob attacks provoke this? The caravan? I’m so confused.

pretty much sums it up!

I’m kind of astonished he used the term ā€œdomestic terrorism.ā€ They’ve steadfastly refused to use that phrase for right wing acts of violence for a long time, so why trot it out now?

As we continue to learn more, Americans are united in gratitude for the first responders — the Secret Service, the Postal Service, and other law enforcement — who protect our leaders and public figures from such unconscionable acts,ā€ he said in a statement.

So is Soros a public figure or a one of our leaders? And it was a Soros’ staffer who removed the package to a safe distance from the office.

So we get McConnell’s take on this where’s Paulie?

I don’t think they even recognize the part they played in this. Consider…Dumbnuts has a rally tonight; how is he going to incite his followers to a feverish pitch without the ā€˜violence against our enemies’ statements? his vocabulary doesn’t extend to anything else.

Join with all Americans in condemning This?

Color me skeptical that the raving fools screaming ā€œlock her upā€ at his nationalist rallies agree.

but then was heard to mumble …

" Maybe now … I can finally enjoy my meals …"

That was one body slam of a response, Yertle. I’m all hacked up…

He could have gone with ā€œ+1,ā€ that’s only two characters. Sad!
