    ‘Disappointed’ is certainly not the language I’d use in her position. I’d remind Trump that future presidents may follow his lead and pardon his attempted assassins. TACO in no time.

    What the hell does it take for US centrist/centre-left politicians to be outraged?

      Suggest universal healthcare, universal housing, or universal education(including college/university).

      Politicians cant just talk however they want, its this idea of “decorum” that they have to maintain.

      Its just different expectations for left-of-center and right-of-center politicians. Double Standards.

      A far right politician can just go around saying “that’s a nasty question” or go mocking disable people or saying “grab them by the pu***” and still be elected.

      But if Biden says something bad about the maga voters, it’s “unprofessional”/“unpresidential”… 🤷‍♂️
