34. Like everyone else here, i am not surprised.

But I am disturbed. His rhetoric is getting darker and scarier every day. He's always been big on threatening people, of course, but he didn't always paint such vividly graphic scenarios as this. This feels very different to me from telling people to go to the Capitol and "fight like hell," for example.

I see this as further evidence of his deteriorating cognitive state. He's clearly exhibiting disinhibition due to in his dementia. It may not be quite as obvious with him as it would be with some people, because we're so used to him saying outrageous things, but to me, this dramatic, detailed description of a specific individual facing a firing squad is a whole different level of outrageous.

The GOP should be deeply ashamed of the way they are enabling this profoundly mentally ill individual to endanger the future of this country while making a public display of his illness in the process. Unfortunately, the party seems to have lost any capacity for shame. Smdh
