Yesterday George Soros, today the Clintons. Yet all the ads I see on YouTube are from the GOP talking about how violent and out of control Democrats are. ---

The comments on the Fox News story are exactly what you would expect: (1) this is clearly orchestrated by the left in order to make the right look bad ahead of the election; (2) too bad the bombs didn’t kill their targets; (3) it’s only a matter of time before we string Billary up for all the crimes they’ve perpetrated against our once-great nation. I’m sure the President will do nothing whatsoever to refute any of this nonsense or temper the rhetoric, but will instead find no-so-subtle ways to ramp it up. TLDR: Trump supporters don’t give a shit. ---

Trump is right; Soros and the Clintons and the Obamas are all crazy, ordering bombs off Amazon and such. And for being Democrats. ---

Republicans are creating jobs for deplorable bomb makers. On a serious note, I hope no one is injured or worse by these assholes. ---
