The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Dope1: And a Bernie Sanders supporter tried to murder several Republicans at the Congressional Baseball game.

Has Bernie Sanders repeatedly attacked specific republicans, like ever? He has called Trump a demagogue but otherwise, I don't think so. And immediately following the shooting, Sanders said:

"I am sickened by this despicable act. Let me be as clear as I can be. Violence of any kind is unacceptable in our society, and I condemn this action in the strongest possible terms. Real change can only come about through nonviolent action, and anything else runs against our most deeply held American values."

Tell me, what has Trump said after incidents of violence by his cult?

Lessee...

There were 'very fine people on both sides.'

Trump repeatedly demonized the Capitol police officer who shot and killed rioter Ashli Babbitt.

Trump spread conspiracy theories after the Paul Pelosi attack: 'It's weird things going on in that household in the last couple of weeks. You know, probably, you and I are better off not talking about it. The glass, it seems, was broken from the inside to the out and, you know, so, it wasn't a break in, it was a break out.'

And on and on and on, over and over again.

Rinse and repeat.

Trump knows exactly what he's doing and there's a clear pattern in his behavior.

But sure, nothing to see.
