Safe from whom? His own party is the overwhelming perpetrator of political violence, threats, and shootings. The rest of us need to stay safe from gun-toting white supremacists like himself.
No, the rest of you need to go on the offense against gun-toting white supremacists like him.
Remember his face. He won‘t be gone for long. This is a PR move.
Like pedophile priests getting transferred to Latin America
Sorry for the offense caused by the comments. Not sorry that they commented it; just that you feel some sort of way about them.
Non-apology. More Republican Bullshit.
From the article, this seems like actual antisemitism, and not the "Israel is doing bad things" type of "antisemitism".
They said some rather gross shit.
Whoops! The things that their policies scream was actually said out loud! No one knew!
/S
I'm tired of Republicans complaining that we all see them as racist mysogonistic monsters when every.single.last.one.of.them. are exactly that.
My initial reaction to seeing his photo was “that’s a convicted sex offender, isn’t it?”
Give him time. I mean, he's obviously got the dodgy material on some device or another. So it's just a matter of time until the being convicted part comes along.
"Resign" does not come up to the bare minimum of what needs to happen, here.
He shouldn't be allowed a single quiet moment in public. Call him out at his favorite restaurant, at the grocery store, etc.
Spewing nazi rhetoric should have consequences.
But, the apologies and the deep regrets!
He only regrets the texts leaking and that people were offended by them, not that he said them.
26?!?!
Theyre never beating the charges
The sack of shit neo-Nazi is not sorry!
Who gives a fuck about this nazi’s “healing”
How did this young child get married and into political office? Little scamp. Saying things he doesn't understand while his mind is still forming. Whatever happened to boys will be boys?
And how are we just hearing that there were/are elected politicians in that chat?
Young* Republicans never precluded elected officials, and also includes assholes up to age 40!
Kinda surprising he was a Vermont senator. Would've expected New Hampshire to elect someone like that but not really Vermont.. Jeez.
Just because Burlington is full of liberals that vote blue doesn't mean the rest of Vermont is.
Sure. Just didn't realize the asshole rate was high enough to actually get racist trash elected.
He's running for governor.
