    Benjy Sarlin Retweeted Lis Power

    Again, the party line has flipped overnight from dismissing any concerns about pro-Trump violence as deeply offensive to Republicans to naming it as an urgent threat that we all need to bend over backward to defuse. It’s a confession.https://twitter.com/LisPower1/status/1348988164216643586 …

        Sure, like the impeachment is the reason for the violence.

        Not defuse. Tolerate. They want us to tolerate pro-Trump violence as a normal political condition in the U.S.A.

        It’s a masterclass in illustrating why you’re not supposed to negotiate with terrorists. Once the threat is effective there’s no reason to stop being threatening.

        Did they skip the history of world war 2. It’s all there.

        If they were Patriots they would be asking for his resignation or impeachment.

        And if course it's a set-up. If there's violence, as they likely expect, it'll be the fault of the Democrats, setting up an equivalency of sorts with what Trump did. The Democrats as inciters of violence.

        Did they all say that we should defund the police so that BLM protests would be defused? I'm sure that was their position, because they keep telling me that the BLM protests were much more dangerous and violent.
