I don't see why it's significant that no Congress people called out Scalise; the media (which is in bed with the DNC) has demonized Republicans, with their invective, especially as they interact with social media. Their pundits have used dehumanizing and demonizing language. How can you say that Trump's language is a motivator of violence and yet completely ignore the language coming from the Left?

Also, CNN sucks, and the mainstream media is the enemy of the people.

No they have not. The media reports what is going on. It reports what comes out of his mouth. It reports the crap that goes on at his rallies. They are reporting what they are seeing and hearing. And of course you think CNN suck and the media is the enemy of the people. What else is new?

Things about the props to look like bombs & the van being pristine, the skin wrap style stickers in perfect condition, in a deep blue area of Florida, just do not make sense.
In Austin/Travis County. That van would have been damaged in some way and the stickers peeled off for sure.

What’s eerily ironic is that the bomb Sayoc‘s fingerprint was lifted from revealing his identity was the one mailed to Maxine Waters. So if Republicans lose anything in this mid term election as a result, Maxine Waters will be indirectly responsible which I’m sure she’ll appreciate.

There’s zero way to know whether Trump caused him to do this or not. Hence it’s not worth discussing but the media won’t find that to be the case. This is no different than the argument of punishing people who some claim drove someone to suicide. Meanwhile there are plenty of other people who take the same abuse and never kill themselves. Sometimes we just have to accept certain people handle things differently than others and maybe this guy took Trump’s statements and did this but a few hundred million others didn’t

The media is selective in their reporting and their condemnation. And I only think CNN sucks and the media is the enemy of the people because CNN sucks and the media is the enemy of the people.

Obviously, potential suicide bombers with real bombs are more of a threat than a lone guy who send stuffs that don't explode.
