Crabtree posted:And now we must sacrifice a Republican every 24 hours to keep Trump popular. Begin the blood letting. Considering what pathetic toadies they've turned into for him I wouldn't be surprised with a daily lottery where the short straw gets thrown into a snake pit to keep him numbers a percentage higher. "It isn't fair, it isn't right!" screamed the congressman who a day before kicked a man into the hole.

Depends really if voters feel sympathy for Rs over this. Might turn back some weaker Rs who feel threatened.

Go back and read the 9/11 thread and see how well the heartfelt unity held up. "WATCH BUSH START A loving WAR" is the only thing I remember about that thread.

botany posted:that's because an attack on their own can be used to spin attention away from his involuntary nixon cosplay. and liberals fall for that poo poo. remember how many liberals donated money when that GOP office got hit? even this thread is going "now is the time to show compassion and be the bigger person! have pity on the poor racist who wants to let people die of preventable diseases!" it's loving stupid but as long as it works they're going to use it to make political hay. There's a difference between "pity the poor racist" and "hey maybe let's not shoot people who are in congress." Unless you're advocating the start of a serious civil war, shooting any congress person needs to be treated as some serious poo poo. Now when people start advocating a gofundme for the guy, that's when you should get on to people. TGLT fucked around with this message at 15:15 on Jun 14, 2017 |

Covok posted:Depends really if voters feel sympathy for Rs over this. Might turn back some weaker Rs who feel threatened. No, no. That's collective suffering and doesn't translate to poll upticks. What we need is a full human tragedy every day of "the people that matter" and Trump could look at and remember their name for him to have a staffer write something barely sympathetic enough for him to look human for an hour. The Don Demands Loyalty and Blood for his good image.

So do we know anything about the shooter yet? I figured at least his name would have leaked by now. As for feeling bad for the GOP, I'm not sure feeling happy that a bunch of lawmakers got shot is a good thing, no matter how garbage they are as human beings. I just hope Scalise is OK for the sake of his family.

I'll admit that I don't remember much specific, but I believe it rather quickly turned out in a way similar to this thread: mostly people being good people and wishing for the best and seeking information, but also a fair backdrop of flippant jokes and associated moral outrage. Granted not very flippant, but enough to jar a bit.

Then you spend 20 minutes trying to get back into VA because in many places the way you got in to D.C. is nowhere near a way to get out. Additionally it's basically impossible to own a gun in DC and "I accidentally got here from VA" is not an excuse that will fly with the cops.

This is a nice time for Fox News ratings to be in the shitter. Lowest rated of the big 3 cable news networks now. Fewer people are in their bubble than were before Trump was elected. Trumps disapproval will go from 60% to 59% because the news is ignoring him for a moment and all the sadbrains will start crying even more. Unless he tweets something terrible in the next 30 seconds, which you never know...he likes to do that after this kind of thing happens. e: Also murder is bad, don't do that.
