    If only there was a term they could use referencing the use and threat of violence in order to achieve political gains. It feels like that’s a word that should exist already, and that Republicans should all be considered the domestic version of whatever kind of person would do that.

          That’s just the Trump excuse. Everything atrocious that is said that gets pushback is a joke.

              Pretty much. He “tells it like it is” when they agree with him and it’s a joke when they don’t. Reality is fungible for them.

      I know the term you are looking for, but probably the shooters are white Christian nationalists.

      Which means they are definitely not political terrorists who are terrorizing .

      But I could be wrong and these are terrorists. Who knows? Perhaps one is mixed race or stepped into a mosque within the last 20 years. Let’s keep an open mind

          I reckon it’s supposed to be sarcasm, that since they are white Christians they can’t be terrorists, unless they are “mixed” race or have been in a Mosque

              It got me the first time too. That’s how you know it’s great sarcasm!
