Kim Perales#TFG/Rs sink to new lows (Dante's inferno seems relevant).
How is this not bigger news?
TFG posted a video of one of his supporters attacking "blowjob liberals" & raging that if TFG is elected, he'll "get rid" of liberals, who'll be "gone." He’ll get rid of all you fucking liberals. You liberals are gone when he fucking wins."
The video he posted got notice for attacking JoeNBC.
By promoting this video, he endorsed that sentiment re libs generally.
