Going out on a limb and suggesting if a MAGA hat wearing yokel drove a van through a Warren or Sanders voter registration tent, it would be the only thing journalists & major news outlets would be talking about right now.
They would be clearing graphite off the roof at CNN right now.
There would be Charlottesville comparisons. Jim Acosta would chain himself to the WH Fence. Tapper would be demanding Kelkyanne Conway personally accept responsibility and Fredo would be quote tweeting people with 12 followers.
There would be 5 NY Times OP-Eds about Trump’s SOTU speech was the motivation. NBC reporters would be scouring 4Chan. Wash Post front page would read TERROR IN JACKSONVILLE. Candidates would be gathering for candlelight vigils.
Jacksonville and #DefeatHate would be top trends on Twitter. Every celebrity with a political following would be making Hitler comparisons. Stelter & Darcy would be blaming some Fox & Friends segment because that’s what Media Matters would be doing. There would be marches.
But of course there’s none of that, and you don’t have to like Trump to notice this. You just have to have a pulse.
