.. or the president wanting to call for flying flags at half mast for a youtube personality ... rather than for the death of one of the highest state officials in the country (in ~~Michigan~~ Minnesota Melissa Hortman), including her husband and the attempted killing of a senator and his wife ... an event that should have been treated as a major violent political event but was downplayed for the mere fact that it was political opponents.
