A Trump supporter started murdering his way through an assassination list of Democratic law makers FIVE MONTHS AGO. He murdered my colleague Melissa Hortman, and her husband Mark — and attempted to assassinate my dear friend John Hoffman and his wife Yvette. I was also on the hit list. WTF

The “Moderate Democrat Rules of Engagement” outline the following negotiating tactic:

Moderate Democrat ‒ “I would like you to please stop punching me in the face.”

Republican ‒ “No.”

Moderate Democrat ‒ “OK, I suppose a few more punches won’t hurt. Carry on!”
