If you claim to be a leader in any way—political leader, thought-leader, business leader, religious leader—and you don’t stand up and say clearly that America must keep this man away from power, then you’re no kind of leader at all. https://t.co/rgoQMYGPC5

You’d think someone as physically cowardly as TFG would know better than to threaten a Cheney with guns, but senile disinhibition is a terrible affliction. It is perhaps a comfort for some of those suspicious of Cheney’s intentions in a Harris / Walz adminstration that this incident pretty clearly sets her up as head of the post-Trump Republican party…
Upon arrival in Wisconsin, VP Harris said that Trump’s comments about training rifles on Liz Cheney "must be disqualifying.” Trump, she added, is "out for revenge” as his “rhetoric has grown more extreme” in the final days of the campaign. pic.twitter.com/rIm9so1X4A

“Picking fly specks out of pepper” was one of my Irish granny’s favorite insults for juvenile rules-lawyers…
Picking gnat shit out of pepper. He routinely calls for his enemies to have violence visited upon them and jokes/celebrates when it happens like 1/6 and Paul Pelosi.
And there isn't a single direct US military action the last 25 years that Cheney supported but Trump didn't. https://t.co/esPtder8MX

Handy trick with violent Trump rhetoric for journalists: if Joe Schmoe said it verbatim but about Trump, would the Secret Service pay him a visit?
