Well I'm given to understand that today & for a VERY limited time, our nation's political violence party is shocked—shocked!—to learn that we currently live in a world of normalized political violence, and would like very much to know who is to blame.

At this point, I don't even care who the Democratic nominee is. I'd like to get back to shining light on Trump's MAGA Right and their continual incitement of violence as they look to seize power again.
