    Suddenly because Trump got hit, right wingers want to cool down the rhetoric.

    You know, the same people who uttered big yuk yuks when Paul Pelosi was bashed in the head with a hammer.

    What's really desired here is for the public to treat Trump like our MSM does--as a normal candidate with just some kooky traits and not as a rapist, felonious traitor.

    We get a little taste of our own medicine and the logical outcomes of our policies and politics and we are like drunks who show up in church on Sunday morning hungover swearing they are going to make some better choices. Of course we all know we will be back on our bullshit Friday night. Its the American way. I cant be the only one who finds all of this sanctimony tedious.

    A snowball's chance in hell. There is no such thing on this site as respectful disagreement.

    If it were to happen, it would last about as long as the next round of lawfare and democratic attacks on Trump.

    What I didn't hear from Biden yesterday is let's come together and let it start with me. I take responsibility for participating in attacking Trump for 9 years and that stops right now. I want the nation to come together now even though I declared 1/2 the country as enemies at Freedom Hall in Philadelphia over 3 years ago. I have instructed the DHS and the SS to immediately beef up all protections for both Trump and provide the same protections for Kennedy. We must now be the nation that comes together with faith and love as we cannot continue on this path of violence and destruction.

    My prediction: All of the kumbaya from the Biden administration and the Biden campaign will grind to a halt as Biden can't run on his performance since the day he was sworn into office.

    Again, a snowball's chance in hell. The circle jerkers are going to continue with their hate of Trump which is and has been their political motivation for 9 years. Getting along with this much hate just simply isn't possible.

    Circle jerkers and Trump haters unite, you aren't expected to suddenly change what you are at your core.

    Man, I prayed for it across the globe today. Unfortunately, my hopes aren't high. It's the cost of more social media and less human interaction.

    There is zero evidence the shooter was politically motivated. People are just using the event to virtue signal. In about 24 more hours it will be old news, just like a school shooting, and everything will be back to normal - memes and all.

    it is deeper than that though. there is no acceptable basis of facts for the two parties to reference. the whole fake news and the abandonment of science and math in favor of MAGA youtube truths

    one of my favorite quotes

    if you wish to discuss with me, we must first define our terms

    we can't even agree on which dictionary to use the define terms as MAGA discredits any source that doesn't agree with them.

    Totally unknown until the investigation is completed. As of last night, the KGB hadn't even gotten into the shooter's cell phone.

    I don't trust the KGB as far as I can throw them so I'm not expecting a timely investigation that is honest. This KGB are the same people who made an historic raid on Trump's home which is now unconstitutional, developed the Russia Hoax, spied on the 2016 Trump campaign, and has been using lawfare to eliminate the political opposition by convicting Trump of bogus crimes and trying to throw him in jail. This is the same KGB that threw the book at Trump by abusing the laws only to let a doddering old fool off for doing worse because is occupies the WH and is the sitting president.

    Yep, you are 100% correct, no change here as there is zero middle ground we can cling to for any length of time.

    In order for everyone to get along, some folks have to disappear. No thanks.

    I think we just said the same thing. There is no evidence of political motivation... you just threw in a YET. I suppose you are hoping to uncover an antifa flag or something eventually. Good luck. However, I am sure we will be treated to years of conspiracies.

    I wouldn’t mind disappearing to, say, a smaller country carved out of Disunited States.

    This is the biggest challenge. We aren't living in the same realities.

    I read China Mieville's The City & the City years ago and thought it was about the dumbest thing I had ever read. Two cities side by side and even overlapping each other, and the residents of each city completely ignore the existence of the other. I'm finding it more and more believable with every passing year.
