He was yelling “where’s Nancy“ while he tried to beat her husband to death. Not drugs. Not homelessness. Just evil. AKA, MAGA. Now, we can sit back and watch MAGA say he had it coming.
Per who?

You'll get Democrat representatives being less aggressive in Congress, Democrats less willing to run for Congress, Democrats less willing to volunteer for political campaigns, and Democrats less willing to vote.
The cost to political participation then for Democrats will be higher than for Republicans, who are far less likely to face any of these things. Yes, Steve Scalise says hi, but the one crazy person going after him is the exception that proves the rule.
Maybe this will prompt Congress to say enough is enough. Enough with threats to any politicians and enough with threats to any cabinet member and enough with threats to the Supreme Court. None of it has been acceptable but as we know with the assassination attempt on Kavanaugh, which neither Biden nor Pelosi condemned, it is not acceptable at all ever.
Try harder.
Biden “condemns the actions if this individual in the strongest terms,” Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said. “Any threats of violence or attempts to intimidate justices have no place in our society.”
