Except that’s what everyone on the right was doing before we learned it was the Trump admin that granted him asylum - and most are still doing it. If only Republicans would blame the shooters more often instead of trying to use deranged acts by individuals for political gain.

There is no constitutionally legitimate scenario in which we are being de facto governed by the White House Deputy Chief of Staff using a half-dead president as his sock puppet. We went out of our way to amend the Constitution on precisely this point.

Trump publicly attacked these lawmakers, calling them “traitors” & saying their words were “punishable by death.” This jeopardizes the military’s apolitical standing & represents a threat to free speech in the USA.

Since Hoover died in 1972 there have been 7 FBI Directors and a dozen Acting. Not one of them ever appeared in public in a ball cap and a warmup jacket with the team logo looking like the Gatorade guy on the sideline of a Cleveland Browns football game.
