GOP Rep Commands Dems To Treat Trump With Same Respect Republicans Gave Biden (crooksandliars.com)

Ohio Rep.Michael Rulli appeared on Maria Bartiromo's Fox Business News show to say he is appalled at Democrats' rhetoric, which needs to be "toned down." The Ohio Republican must never have seen Trump's tweets or Truth Social posts before. He should check in on that! Or when Donald said in Iowa in July that he "hates" Democrats, saying, "I cannot stand them." Or how about Jan. 6th, when Trump incited a mob of his supporters to attack the US Capitol to cling to power.

Rulli discussed the Charlie Kirk shooting, the only school shooting Republicans have cared about. The Turning Point co-founder seems even more powerful to Republicans after his death, as they use it to silence the opposition. His widow started fundraising days after his death, despite Charlie's $12 million net worth.

He did lie a lot and rip up quite a bit of international relations things though

Oh, man. I remember that. I hated shrub but I had to tip my hat then. That was genuinely impressive. I felt the same way when Wendy Deng protected Rupert from the pie.

And when he went to throw the first pitch during the world series after 9/11. At Yankees stadium he was told he would be boo'd of the field if he threw from the front of the pitch like most celebrities do, and then threw a pitch better than near any I've seen since. Looking at you 50 cent.

Bush was a cheerleader I believe, he knew how to shrug off people laughing at him.
