The plain truth is that this moronic orange clown has numerous treasonous and despicable supporters and enablers within our own government who will help to facilitate and encourage insurrection and chaos by his dim-witted legions of goons. tramp, and nutanyahoo, are modern-day hitlers and should be dealt with as such.

A guy blew himself & an ATT & T service center up about 2 years ago. They're uncivilized apes.

Thanks for that first video. Very interesting to see the possible different scenarios.

Did that MAGA guy actually off himself? Darwin Award contestant for sure.

No, the police stopped him before he could do any harm to himself or others:

Glad that he didn’t hurt anybody.

They're TERRORISTS, a bigger threat than " The Axis of Evil ".

One neighbor said this is simply zero-sum capitalism in a new disguise. Winner take all or nothing.

I have to think about that, thanks for the additional food for thought.

Actually I don't think there will be a civil war over Trump if he does not get reelected. He and and his MAGA leaders are or will be headed to prison. MAGAloons will goback to the woods, and hopefully take a civics course. If he cheats to win.. project 2025, all bets are off.

Cheating, stealing, lying —it's all he knows how to do!

Hitler went nuts and wanted to burn it all down too, right before he killed himself. His generals wouldn’t do it.

Again, Trump himself is responsible for that attitude in no small measure. Of course he has the power to talk these people down. But of course he won't, being the criminal jackass he is. He'll just play innocent, and enjoy.

I think people are desperate for love and will do anything for it or what they think its is, when they are desperate, desperate things happen. We need to face a lot of broken things within us as a culture. I sincerely hope we get the chance. I appreciate your columns.

WE MUST ACT! It's not enough for Democratic voters in blue states to exclaim "Vote Blue" and pat one another on the back. Due to the Electoral College, sadly, many of our blue votes won't matter. We need to get swing states to vote for Biden. https://www.focus4democracy.org/ has a plan to educate undecided voters on why they must vote Blue to protect our democracy. They're focused on swing states. F4D is composed of a dozen or so seasoned campaign messaging experts (combined, they have many decades of experience) who can calculate the effects of different campaign messages on voting outcomes. I'm now donating to their programs (rather than random Democratic candidates). Even people who can't afford to donate can forward the info to everyone they know. Too many people feel hopeless and aren't doing anything. WE MUST TAKE ACTION. Please take a look at focus4democracy. We're in an emergency. I've got a list of nearly 200 friends, acquaintances, and colleagues I'm emailing about this. Will folks here join me? I'm waiting for a show of hands.

Part of me thinks that he's talking out of his ass, making childish threats, the other part thinks we should take him & his band of CHUDs / troglodytes seriously.

Personally, I don’t give a damn if these extremists decide to be a bomber and off themselves.. Just don’t want innocent bystanders to be hurt.

Leave Facebook, Twitter and other main stream social media platforms. They are only a billionaires way to have a huge cash flow no matter who it hurts. Just walk away. Then your mental health will improve. Puck up a book, not a screen.

After last night’s performance by Biden, Trump may not have to bother stealing it. The debate was one colossal clusterf*ck!
