Joe Scarborough has accused Trump of being responsible for the death of a 75-year-old man in Utah whom the FBI shot to death after he had made explicit assassination threats and reportedly pointed a gun at agents. 
Self-styled simple country lawyer Scarborough broke out the "but for" rule: that but for Trump's allegations of a deep state, stolen elections, etc., that man wouldn't be dead. 
Concluded Scarborough: 
"This man paid for it with his life! He bought into the lies. He bought into the conspiracy theory. And now, because of Donald Trump, you know, you could make the argument, he's dead! You can make the argument that he is dead because of Donald Trump."
So what's next, Joe? If under your "but for" rule, Trump is responsible for the man's death, should Jack Smith issue a new superseding indictment, charging Trump with homicide?

    "...You can make the argument that he is dead because of Donald Trump."If you're insane and/or brain-damaged.
 Most normal people understand that the Friends of Biden Inc. offed the 300 pound, 5 foot 4 inch crippled dude for this week's Media Narrative.

    They’re just worried Biden could be charged with murder if Republicans had the audacity that democrats have.

    Sure. All evil and even bad weather can be blamed on one’s enemies with enough rationalization.

    They are laying the groundwork for a felony murder charge against Trump related to the events of Jan 6.

    Scarborough and his floozie are pretty stupid people. I’m surprised anyone pays attention to them.

    Joe’s just another Bahnee Fwank look alike and wannabe. I don’t waste time with his psychobabble.
