    Speaking on Fox & Friends Friday about Charlie Kirk’s death, Trump admitted that he isn’t all that concerned about right-wing radicals.

    “Well, I’ll tell you something that’s gonna get me in trouble, but I couldn’t care less. The radicals on the right oftentimes are radical ‘cause they don’t want to see crime, they don’t want to see crime,” Trump said. “They’re saying, ‘We don’t want these people coming in, we don’t want you burning our shopping centers, we don’t want you shooting our people in the middle of the street.’”

    “The radicals on the left are the problem,” he continued, “and they’re vicious and they’re horrible and they’re politically savvy.”

    Completely expected

    The right has been frothing at the mouth for ANY EXCUSE to enact their twisted murder fantasies about minorities, this was enough for them

    The right are nothing more than a rabid collection of genocidal freaks, and now they own the fucking government

    They know what they’re doing when they make stupid, inflammatory statements

    There are countless stupid, hateful people itching for an excuse to be violent, and the people who call them to arms can deny all responsibility

    Sure would be awful if Kilmeade lost his job, got sued into oblivion, and became socially radioactive to the point that nobody would lend him a dime. Let him become what he hates so much for a while and if he makes it through with mind and body more or less intact, perhaps he’ll do better with the rest of his life.

    Shouldn’t you wait to see if it’s at all related to the comments of that guy? This could have been for myriad other reasons. I mean if you don’t like the right jumping to conclusions without basis you’re not one upping them by doing the same, you look exactly as retarded as they do.

    It’s crazy how republicans are showing they are the actual “snowflakes” and they are actually the pro-censorship party.

        well we dont like fascism, i guess you could say we are anti fascist, so yea, i guess you’re right.

        (for those that dont know, the fascist in chief just said “Antifa”, you know, the ideology that fascists are bad, and to oppose them. is somehow an organized terrorist organization, even though its an idea, and has no organizational structure, leader, etc.)

          They were quoting the Republican party at CPAC iirc, though your interpretation is also accurate. I guess a couple specific flavors of centrist are the only non-terrorists left in the country.

    Y’know. That’s one way to end homelessness. Just kill everyone who is homeless. Voila, no homelessness.

    You become homeless? Straight to the firing line for you.

    I mean, other countries did it by lifting up their citizens with social programs and housing projects and whatnot. Admittedly, I would prefer this much more than America’s method.

    But this does seem quite America of a solution to the homeless “problem”…
