The current president has already set a precedent that politically motivated violence is a valid form of protest and free speech that doesn't warrant prosecution. Up until that the precedents were much different.

Yeah but the current president means politically motivated violence perpetuated against the left is only valid. Violence towards the right, and him especially, is considered treason and subject to ICE detention.
Except everybody hates health insurance execs. It’s like the one thing we can all agree on.
Why limit yourself to "health insurance" execs?
They are among the most egregious execs, but the capitalist rot has infected the entire system, not just one industry.
Right wing voters still want to suck corporate dick, it's just that health insurance also screws them over in such an obvious way that they get a momentary, and very limited, flash of understanding. And so far nobody seems to have figured out a narrative of how to blame it on the left.
B---B---B---BINGO.
And everyone forgets the Fourtiers, who helped Timothy McVeigh and then got put in witness protection so that our tax dollars go to protecting them!
That’s the way this country has always been
Well he considers both types of violence speech, it's just you only have free speech to agree with him
Sure, but only if you let him stack the cards against you. Why should you honor someone who doesn't even honor your law?
Whatever happened to Hillary Clinton’s basement pizza pedophiles? Where’s the CNN FOX NEWS update on that? Remember there were all these tunnels? Where they were raping children?
it was epstein's island all along.

Luigi for President, I don't know anything about his personal politics but he's gotta be better than Trump
He has a few ideas about healthcare I can get behind.
Key word here being “behind”.
Ha
The fact he allegedly started attacking from the top down is good enough for me 1000%. Fuck all this "poor people are the problem" nonsense.
He shot a man on 5th avenue and his popularity went up.
wow, callback to season 1
And if he happens to commit felonies then he's on track to be president
That bar is buried in the deepest mineshaft ever dug.
I'd say the Kola Superdeep Borehole located in Russia
i think i'm starting to understand those movies Journey To The Center Of The Earth and At The Earth's Core and that obsession. At one point we were actually digging just to see how fucking deep we could dig, and that's pretty neat when you think about it.
Better than most Americans.
He's the only one that actually did something, unlike the people crying about Trump on social media.
If he runs for president they should drop the charges because that would make the trial political persecution.
Murder is only cute when republicans do it. It’s less adorable and downright dangerous when someone with a name like “Mangione” does it.

Luigi needs a presidential pardon, then run for office.
He should just run. The current guy is a convicted felon and luigi didn’t do anything.
Also the current guy had most of his criminal cases thrown out because he was running for president.
and billionaires were bankrolling his lawyers.

All im reading here is Luigi is a candidate and can recieve any amount of money possible.
Where do i vote yes?
Good strategy from him attorney.
I mean it's kind of obvious, but still.
His attorney is absolutely top tier talent, and extremely well respected.
She's on MeidasTouch sometimes, she was an original talking head witht them from the start, always enjoyed her takes. Her ads she had to do were always funny too, feels like she's sort of in on the joke about the absurdity of a lawyer hawking a random product but its all good, clean, lawyerly fun 99% of the time plus a day
by the way, TRUMPS court cases was bankrolled by billionaires, and people hot dog skin hogan was bankrolled by THIEL during his lawsuit against gawker. this is no different.
I find it to be better when 50,000 people put $1 then when 1 person put $50,000.
One says I have a rich guy that supports me, the other says a large number of people support me for one reason or another.
And his voters. And the RNC.
"gee I wonder why people are so upset"
The peasants are revolting
YES! Let’s have this debate!
Anyone have the legit fundraiser link?
Please just message me with it... It's probably "against the rules" to publicize it.
Luigi for president. Hell yes
Bribery is not speech
“You must be new around these parts.” There is no higher form of American free speech than the all holy dollar. Most Americans don’t even question that logic.
Most Americans question that logic, but, as money is speech, anyone who questions it in a public forum gets shouted down by those who can afford to speak more ~~"freely"~~.
