Republicans do love to heroize monsters, don’t they?
Utah man, Craig Robertson is the latest. Because of course he is.
Here we Fucking go. Again.
A “suspected Trump supporter” (lol) Utah man was killed the other day, after he “allegedly” (lol again) made death threats against President Biden and other elected officials. Agents were serving a warrant on the man at the time of the shooting.
What has been reported, is that the trumper who was making so many (a metric shit ton to be precise) absolutely insane and disturbingly specific threats against his rotting gourd God’s burn book of “enemies” on social media platforms that the F.B.I. thought it might be a good idea to issue an arrest warrant, just in case the guy posing with all the guns and body armor while simultaneously sharing gruesome and grotesquely detailed dreams of our no longer living government officials was ya know… as serious as he seemed to be about his plans to commit the murders he was describing.
And what did ULTRA MAGA Utah man do when the Federal Bureau of Investigation came a’knocking? Did he open the door and welcome the agents in for some French press coffee and still warm, made from scratch wild blueberry scones? No.
Did he put his arms up and surrender like we’re told over and over again will keep black Americans from being shot to death in their sleep? No.
He grabbed his gun like some dumbfucked in the head dotard worshipping John Dillinger.
And look, you don’t have to know anything about anything, and there’s still about a 110% chance you’d know that one thing you definitely do not want to do when armed FBI agents come knocking on your door at 6 in the morning, is to grab for your gun and think it’s somehow NOT going to end up with the former contents of your skull Jackson Pollock’d all over your tv room wall.
But trumpers ain’t exactly known for their good judgment now are they?
And just in case anyone is wondering what the Qrackheads over in a MAGAville are saying about those very predictable events unfolding in the very predictable manner in which they did, you should already be able to guess, because predictably — they’re saying the fucking guy was “innocent”.
And of course also, that he was “set up by the blah blah who the fuck knows anymore all their fucking bullshit conspiracy theories have at this point, ended up in some crazy ass gangbang orgy where no one even knows where one baseless bullshit supposition ends and the next one begins deep state.’
And here’s the thing — for Republicans to claim that this fucking guy, this Craig Robertson fucking loser was “innocent” is really something, even for them.
But it’s still not even remotely surprising.
The so-called “Party of Law and Order” loves to put violent bad guys on pedestals.
When they say they “Back the Blue”, they make martyrs of those who attacked our police.
Ashli Babbit was shot and killed during the January 6th attack on our Capitol. She was violently and unlawfully attempting to gain access to the House Chamber, after she had violently & unlawfully gained access to the Capitol building itself. And despite numerous warnings by police, she continued to push forward and for that, she was shot. And that bullet killed her.
And what did Republicans say?
Predictably - that she was “murdered” for “peacefully protesting”.
Now I’ve stood where Ashley Babbitt was standing when she was shot and killed, and let me tell you it is very fucking close to where our lawmakers were hunkered down in gas masks, calling their families to say goodbye and praying not to die.
Very fucking close.
But now, the twisted & tangled rancid hot car McDurian mess that is MAGA, has made that domestic terrorist with a history of violence and aggression, a martyr.
And she is not one.
