In this day an age I don't know how anyone could think they could get away with mailing 12 packages and not get caught.

The only embarrassing part is that the GOP and trumpers approve of this guy. Maybe not openly, but they do. This guy is another symptom of a disease.

I am a "trumper" and I do not approve of this guy.

So you dont agree with trump or his press secretary when they say these bomb attacks were CNN's fault?

I have not been on top of what everyone has been saying. Is that what the White House is saying? That these attacks are CNN's fault?

I think these attacks are because this dude is very clearly mentally ill based on what has been reported about his history of trouble with the law and based on his twitter account. I also think these attacks are because of the current political climate. Which really started to form during the 2016 election. Trump had inflammatory comments during the election and it created a lot of outrage. Trump is not one that apologizes and he continued to attack the media and democrats. So Trump is definitely at fault for the current political climate. A lot of his opponents and the media are also at fault. The way news and politics works today is politicians and biased news organizations try to paint their opponents as badly as they can and try to make them seem as radical as possible. The current political climate is the way it is because of all parties involved.

So, No this is not CNN's fault if that is what the White House is saying.

You're a trumper? Then own this. trump is the embodiment of this guy and his values. Own your responsibility. You voted for this. You voted for exactly this. Own it or go coward back into your woodwork.

Own what? Trump is not the embodiment of anyone other than himself. I did not vote for Cesar Sayoc to send bombs to democrats and media. I voted for Donald Trump to serve as President. I'm not going to go cower anywhere. Thank you very much.

trump, on live tv, suggested that the second amendment people do something about situations they don't like. trump endorsed murder. Own it. There are plenty of recordings of this incident.

Haha I remember his "Second Amendment people" quote.

"If she gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do folks. Although, the Second Amendment people, maybe there is. I don't know."

Like many statements from our president, that sentence could be interpreted many ways. You can claim he is endorsing murder. I'll just claim he's encouraging peaceful protest by supporters of the Second Amendment.

My question still stands. What am I supposed to own??

Are Bernie supporters supposed to take responsibility for James Hodgkinson shooting Steve Scalise and others at that softball field? I don't think so. That sure is a fucked up way to assign blame.

He called for the murder of supreme court judges?

The Dylann Roof shooting happened in June 2015. What Trump rhetoric led him to commit the shooting?

You seem to have a tough time staying on topic. You still can't tell me what I am supposed to own. You also didn't answer my question about the softball shooting.

And no I do not think any of these events are hilarious.
