He didnt condemn violence against private businesses or police stations during BLM riots in Minneapolis.

[ashayacatl]

Then stop calling Trump a threat to democracy. Simple.

[Erich]

So he condemns the attack, yet continues to call Trump a threat. Hypocrite.

[hughjorg]

Trump said, "the Presidential medal of freedom (for civilians) is much better than the Congressional medal of honor (for veterans) because the veterans are in very bad shape or they're dead" 😵‍💫. Trump is *mentally chaotic* .

[PacificForage]

Trump would never use such kind words in regards to his opponents safety.

[BearPig]

Abc should be fined for election interference in regards to the debate

[Shining]

How about condemning your war in Ukraine then? There's no honor there..

[leannevandekew]

You get the fruits of the seeds you sow.

[shelleyclements]

I condemn Fa' Fa' Fa' Failed...ah' Po' Po' Politi Political Violence and Cackles, ah' Camel, ah the Black One Ah' anyway!

[Onehitwonder]

Of course He's going to condemn political violence out loud. Bit Joe's inner voice is saying, " damn, foiled again"

[kimberlybustle]

We need unity in this nation..we need to come together..we have too much hate going on in the world and international threats..we need to stop fighting each other

[chrishelton]

Cant we all come together Dem or Rep and condemn this kind of behavior? Whether they choose to vote red or blue we all know they dont represent the better portions of our party/community.

Slayer Lyrics
"Chasing Death"

"You can never truly see
Inside the ones you know
Until you've found them near
The edge of self-control
All I hear are lies
You're lying to yourself
And everything is out of control
You're just a fuckin' slave of discontent
I'm sick of watching you dig this hole

Time waits for no one
Won't stop—it can't be outrun
You know that pain in your head
Won't stop 'til the desperation ends

You've found yourself chasing death
Oblivious until the end
You'll never stop chasing death

Innocence, common sense, I don't see the relevance
Of anything that you've got to say
Parasite, socialite, you're never gonna win this fight
There is no fucking easy way out
No easy way out

I know I should have seen it all coming
But I had to find it out on my own
A whore to incompetence, you hide behind
The shadow that once was your throne
Control is a discipline even when
Frustration just stands in your way
The throes of insanity feel just like
A war inside you every day

I know I should have seen it all coming
But I had to find it out on my own
A whore to incompetence, you hide behind
The shadow that once was your throne
Control is a discipline even when
Frustration just stands in your way
The throes of insanity feel just like
A war inside you every day

Time waits for no one
Won't stop—it can't be outrun
There's just no way of knowing
How long—paranoia's growing
Can't stop the poison winning
Please, just take away this feeling
You know that pain in your head
Won't stop until the desperation ends

You've found yourself chasing death
Oblivious until the end
You'll never stop until you're dead

Innocence, common sense, I don't see the relevance
Of anything that you've got to say
Parasite, socialite, you're never gonna win this fight
There is no fucking easy way out
No easy way out
No easy way out
No easy way out
No easy way out"

Leadership War Violence, is Okay!
No different Sir President.

[DynamicBailey]

All while telling people to put a bullseye on Trump. Yeah, okay🙄

[TomStan-swwj]

what violence? you what thet? peace is beter but what you whant?

[nikkimosley]

Trump probably paying someone to do this because he is that desperate, and he can play on Americans heart strings. Something doesn't smell right DT.

[reginahildebrand]

Baden it really ashamed that you could have a president that would have loved America and stood for a nation that was blessed instead you turned your back on America with so much evil against a county that even blessed you
