Kirk said these killings are the price we pay for our second amendment rights. Republicans claim to be powerless in stopping murders. The people want peace, non-violence, longevity. Republicans tell us to lower these expectations.

Trump echos this powerlessness and tells us to stop expecting prosperity,, settle for less, lower our standard of living.

They are becoming consistent in their messaging.
