Which is worse, the National Guard beating on unarmed peaceful protesters or the taunt to do it again as numbnuts flees town for the weekend to play golf during unrest and a pandemic leaving the triple fenced Whitehouse behind.
(Not to mention calling the Secret Service the "SS".)

The Republican-led U.S. Senate Armed Services Committee voted to require the Department of Defense to rename military bases named after Confederate generals, setting up a clash with President Donald Trump, who opposes that change and promised a veto.
The committee approved the measure, proposed by Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren, as an amendment to the Senate version of the National Defense Authorization Act, or NDAA, a $740 billion bill setting policy for the Pentagon, announced on Thursday.
The committee, with 14 Republicans and 13 Democrats, adopted the amendment by voice vote, which allowed individual members to avoid recording their choice.
... Republican Senator Roy Blunt, who represents Missouri, which was in the Confederacy, said he had no problem changing the bases' names.
"If you want to continue to name forts after soldiers, there have been a lot of great soldiers who have come along since the Civil War," Blunt told reporters.
He noted that Braxton Bragg, who is honored at the sprawling base in North Carolina, was "probably the worst commanding general in the entire Confederate Army. He's an interesting guy to name a fort after."
Bragg was relieved of his command after losing a major battle in 1863....
Comment:
Senate committee approved Fort Bunker Boy as one of the first name replacements.
Such a great man to have done so much for us common folk without asking for anything in return.
“when we took it over from President Obama and Biden, the military was a joke. The military was depleted. They had planes that were 50, 60 years old. They had old broken equipment. Our mil—we had no ammunition. We had no ammunition.” guess who
Damn that Obama, imagine expecting our military to fight without bullets, or was that his "plan"?
Trump: “We had the safest border in the history of our country - or at least recorded history. I guess maybe a thousand years ago it was even better.”
The image not only symbolizes PINO’s craven blasphemy, but the whole episode backfire - including criticism from clergy, the military and even Repugs - is a metaphor for Dolt .45’s sheer incompetence.
I also liked the image of PINO riding in a golf cart when every other world leader, some also elderly, was walking.
