    The cynic in me sees this as a clear play to jostle the Overton Window. Sure this won’t pass, but will the people who suggested it face consequences? How much heat actually comes their way?

    Now they’ve checked the temperature and got away with it, they can try some other reprehensible thing and see if the backlash is manageable.

    Repeat until hell on earth.

      Here’s how I see it. Dems want WW3, GOP wants 2nd Civil War. I’m backing Dems because, as much as it sucks to admit it, we as Americans need an external threat or we will rip each other’s throats out. I cannot recall a time of relative peace since the 90’s.

        How do you figure that Dems want WW3?

        This is directly out of Leo Strauss, who was a major influence on neoconservative thought. It’s also fundamentally fascist, following the “life is permanent warfare” point in Umberto Eco’s Ur-Fascisim.
