“Violence has no place in America” has to be one of the biggest lies US politicians reflexively spout. Not only does violence have a prominent position in American society, it's a fcking religion here. And you platitudinous shitbags do fuck all to solve the problem.

"Trump is a fucking idiot who gets rolled by anyone who's nice to him" theory remains undefeated, putting someone like Mamdani in there is like having Randy Johnson sub in for a 5th grade Little League game
Q: Stefanik has called Mamdani a 'jihadist.' Do you think you're standing next to a jihadist right now?
