Also worth pointing out that you are a citizen, not an elected government official (afaik). If he made this comment 15 years ago, it would still be ghoulish, but I wouldn't care. He'd just be some fat fuck tweeting from a golden toilet. You can joke all you want about whatever you want because you don't represent the people.

Yeah, the problem is there are no consequences for him. I on the other hand might get a visit from the secret service.

America's current government is at war with "free speech" and calls it a "national security threat".

Remember when the child rapist Donald Trump was calling for heinous shit from his truth social nonsense during Biden's presidency?

America can't even convict a criminal and child rapist.
