Well, don’t invite them to your parties then and have Melania strike their names from the Chrismas card list.

Do you get the impression that the Supreme Court doesn’t like me?

Kellyanne Conway was struck by the concurrence and the dissent? Given that there were no concurring opinions I think that tells us exactly how informed her comments were.

If Trump really wants to go on about shotgun blasts he needs to get Cheney involved.

OT/ This kind of stuff keeps happening on Trump campaigns. Remember Hillary and the ā€œsheriff’s starā€?

Although certain symbols the Nazis deployed have been reclaimed, including the pink triangle used in concentration camps to label homosexual inmates, the red triangle has not been recast in a similar way, said Jacob S. Eder, a historian of modern Germany at the Barenboim–Said Akademie in Berlin

ā€œI think it’s a highly problematic use of a symbol that the Nazis used to identify their political enemies,ā€ he said. ā€œIt’s hard to imagine it’s done on purpose, because I’m not sure if the vast majority of Americans know or understand the sign, but it’s very, very careless, to say the least.ā€

Deborah E. Lipstadt, a leading American scholar of the Holocaust, said the inclusion of the symbol in alarmist advertising bore echoes of the campaign’s initial decision to hold a rally in Tulsa on June 19, known as Juneteenth in commemoration of the end of slavery. Trump delayed the rally by a day following an outcry.

ā€œIt’s an insensitivity, and likely indicative of who’s around the table when these decisions are being made,ā€ she said. ā€œI find it shocking.ā€

He’s jonesing for violence - this constant ā€˜second amendment’ shit. Doesn’t care about anything or anyone. THIS is scary as hell. He won’t mince words as time goes on. Thank god he’s pissed off the military and National Guard (I hope).

He can’t fire them.

He can’t piss them off because there’s still a few decisions that affect him, directly or indirectly, over the next week.

He’s really in a bind here. Hope it squeezes him out.

I was thinking we might get a Jacksonian ā€œMr. Roberts has made his decision. Now let him enforce it,ā€ but he probably hasn’t gotten to that page in his Andrew Jackson coloring book yet.

I would think that an uptick in shotgun blasts to faces might sway some people’s opinions about the Second Amendment.

Watch what happens at the Corona festival in Tulsa. There’ll be your indication.

He keeps saying that liberals are trying to take away your 2nd Amendment. I don’t think that means what he thinks it means. That can’t be done without a constitutional convention or going through the states which requires 3/4 of them and is nearly impossible. But, ya know that’s just in reality world.

Well this abusive ranting will surely help them feel protective of him, won’t it?
