Do you not realize how terrible it is that he missed? You of all people as a "flaming liberal" should be the most angry. This essentially secures trumps presidency, its the best thing that could have happened to his campaign.

    First of all, that's bullshit. As I said in another thread:

    The electorate is viscerally polarized, and very few people are on the fence about who to vote for - maybe some undecided about whether they’ll vote at all. I can’t imagine there are many people who are going to switch from Biden to Trump because of this, or who will even go from undecided to Trump. It makes no sense.

    Second, my political activism stops short of murder. Apparently that doesn't go far enough for you. That doesn't make me a troll.

    Dont get me wrong, assassinations are stupid and rarely accomplish much of value. No single human is responsible for the state of our society, it is much more institutional than that. Only a dismantling of the current systems could actually inact change. HOWEVER, if trump was murdered I would gloat and I feel no shame in that.

    Also them missing is gonna make MAGA people really annoying for a while
