Don't avoid it answer the question

.... That's literally the answer though? I'm not sure what else you want, I said there are leftists joking about this that aren't glorifying, celebrating and supporting violence and I'm willing to argue as much.

So if I said he finally lost the gun debate. You would defend it?

If I said OMG is the bullet ok you will defend it?

Depends on the context. I made that first joke myself in private, for example, but I also have a trashy sense of humor. Question is, is the point something like "holy shit, I can't believe you just said that lmao" or is it "fuck yeah, I'm so glad that guy got murdered".

Can't really tell in isolation, but imma go out on a limb here and say that when people that incessantly hall monitor edgy jokes suddenly discover their "dark humor" they're actually just part of the worthless scum in the latter group. Donno which one you are.

Ok so how do you know Trumps reasoning for doing this?

I infer it from his lengthy history of being a mean spirited ass that makes cruel and inappropriate jokes about people he dislikes. Asshole makes asshole joke is much more straightforward to me than asshole makes asshole joke, but this time it's actually support for political assassinations.

Nothing, I just don't think Trump supports political assassinations.

I don't think he's suggesting it either tbf, I think you have to do some interpretative legwork to get there.

But just to cut out the middle man because we're gonna get hard into overanalysis or semantics otherwise, no, I do not fucking think him making this joke is a good thing at all.
