Records show he pleaded guilty to state charges in Florida in 2002 for threatening to "discharge a destructive device."

Sayoc registered as a Republican in Florida in 2016, Milton reports. Undated video surfaced Friday of Sayoc apparently attending a Trump rally.

Speaking early Friday afternoon, Mr. Trump praised authorities for quickly taking Sayoc into custody and said he would be prosecuted to the "fullest extent of the law." - https://www.cbsnews.com/news/cesar-sayo ... 018-10-26/


Was this before or after he promised his audience he'd defend them in court if they attacked his enemies?

Here we go. What was it Nancy Pelosi said last year, "How dare anyone blame us for the actions of one mentally sick individual."

Me too? The hell? I referred to the things you brought up. If you think a Floridian semi-homeless bouncer defies Republican stereotypes because of “Christian morals” you have no clue about the demographics the party currently attracts.

Dog is clearly bouncing off the walls here trying to come up with something witty as a rebuttal to well, current reality.

Nancy Pelosi isn’t routinely encouraging violence against her critics. You seem to have missed that context.

You can read the bomber’s Twitter if you wish. It’s very stereotypical pro-Trump, far-right conspiracy shitposting with idiosyncratic references to the Seminole tribe mixed in. It contains at least one pretty overt death threat to members of the media, so good job Twitter.

I missed the reports where Trump encouraged mail-bombs for the people that received them...but maybe you mean a little more broad stroke...like just generic violence....again, i missed it in regards to the specific people who received mail bombs....but then again, maybe you meant a general colloquial for violence like how people say "get wrecked"....yet again...but in all fairness maybe you are referencing his RHETORIC...which obviously can be interpreted any sort of way...like Hillary Clinton's call for no more civility in wake of having to survive lest all ye believe be destroyed....at which point, yes, these are seen as a call for violence...and quite obviously it is only seen as a call to violence by crazy people...and Democrats trying to win mid-terms....similarity duly noted.

Unconquered Seminole? Weren't they conquered like a long time ago? I'm sure Gillium is loving this. Has he commented yet?
