While I cannot condone political violence like this, I do feel like i is poetic justice. For eight years, conservatives, mainstream, elected conservative politicians have openly mused about "Second Amendment remedies" and they have implied that it is okay to kill liberal lawmakers who a citizen deems to be a "tyrant."
Now if expanding medicaid and raising income tax rates to pay for it makes someone a tyrant then surely a man like Steve Scalise must be a tyrant. Steve Scalise is part of a group of Americans who openly and proudly use the American State for the advancement of White Supremacy. Not only that, the GOP Congressional leadership and the White House do not even have legitimacy since they demonstrably failed to win a majority of votes, they may have had assistance from a foreign government and they are actively conspiring to rig future elections. A more vile and illegitimate political figure you will not find.
If we removed the obvious partisanship from the equation and dispassionately used the GOP's rubric for "tyranny" and its assertion that citizens had a right and duty to "veto" said tyranny with "Second amendment remedies,"" Donald Trump and senior Republican leadership, at this point in time, would clearly qualify for removal by second amendment means.
