This asshat should read Steinbeck's The Moon is Down where the women of an occupied town lure soldiers to their beds and then stab them to death with scissors.
This Claremont twit is so fearful of “wine moms” with cell phones and whistles that he’s demanding Trump crush them with violence.
Or rather, more violence.

Like for instance, taking an ad out in the WSJ to say 'Oops, sorry about all that I-love-Hitler stuff, my bad' without further restorative action.
A change of heart is good, and we should foster it and encourage it wherever we see it. However, be cautious of somebody who claims a change of heart but refuses to walk in a new direction, or insists that somebody else carry them down the path.

ICE can't even deal with irate middle-aged midwesterners. how does he occupy hundreds, if not thousands, of polling cites and precincts? trump v. illinois clarified that he has no legal authority to unilaterally commandeer national guards, how does he move forward from there?
