I know that they did, but it's the most hypocritical complaint ever. If every shooting you blame the NRA, you can stfu about anyone else politicizing a death. ESPECIALLY, when you openly advocate breaking laws that would stop things like that from happening (sanctuary cities, open borders, etc).
You're not wrong that it's hypocritical, but it's one of those things where both sides are almost necessarily being hypocritical. If every crime committed by an illegal immigrant that makes the national stage gets used to blame the current immigration policy or the lack of a wall, then it doesn't seem justified to call out anybody who does the same thing with regard to shootings and gun policy.

LOL. Like I've said, I really don't understand the need to make shit up to attack Trump personally. First off, there's plenty to dislike already (although I think a lot has to do with the fact that his policies are working, relatively speaking, and the liberal media would rather talk about anything else). But second, it just doesn't work. None of this is a scandal, because everyone knew who Trump was before he even announced he was running.
Hahahah....a few days ago, Cohen was the "smoking gun". Now his lawyer is walking things back, again. The liberal media really is Charlie Brown trying to kick that football.
Yeah, Trump is actually sort of unique in that EVERYONE knew who he was before this whole thing began. The man's been in the spotlight as a celebrity for decades.
For whatever reason, though (I personally think it's the rampancy of the empty self disorder and the felt need for dramatics, real or imagined), we've bought into this idea that, at least on matters of what we perceive to be important, there is a side that can be described as self-aware evil. They're evil. They know they're evil. They're trying to further the cause of evil. Hence the reference to Skeletor.
I honestly have to say I'm a little worried at where that will take us.
