Because none of the bombs have exploded, the investigation should narrow down to the person who sent them. That does raise the possibility that they weren't meant to go off, though. If the investigation does not bear fruit until after the midterms, and it turns out it is someone on the left who did this, the Democrats will never win another election for the White House.

Hoax/political stunt is where my money is at. Don’t get me wrong it would be a red letter day if a pipe bomb blew up in Soros’ face, but somehow I don’t buy it.

Even though Donald Trump has personally insulted every single person who received a bomb today, President Trump contradicted his normal hate speech about democrats and called for all Americans, democrats and republicans, to come together. This type of violence (terrorism actually) will not be tolerated by anybody, regardless of political affiliation.

I hope Donald Trump for once will listen to his aides and other republicans when they tell him to turn down the hateful rhetoric against democrats and CNN. Because like I said, every single person who received a bomb has been talked about and insulted by Trump.
When are Democrat leaders going to condemn violence and stop inciting attacks on their political opponents? Haven't heard a public statement about the recent attacks on various GOP congressional members.

1 and 2 are the same as 3

I'd add possible ISIS or Russian operatives looking to disrupt things, and they also fall into your #3

#3 is 100% given for whoever did this, barring the gender descriptive

If the package they sent to the Clintons were the size of a new email server they would have had a better chance of getting it through.

actually, he didn't restrict it to just this nation. but whether you or i find it funny or not is irrelevant - the fact was it was said in jest, not the serious threat you desperately want it to be.

Trump responds to hateful rhetoric... Ironic that liberals ignore that... The media and the Democrats have been hurling deceitful vicious rhetoric since before he became a candidate... It goes BOTH ways... Ignorant liberals

interesting the Democrats would send these non postmarked packages to themselves in an effort to influence an election.

There is practically no moderation in the Democrat Party. Look at the Kavanaugh debacle for proof of that. There's exactly one sane Democrat left - Joe Manchin.
