The game is called politics. Both sides do it. It’s not particularly surprising, nor is it going to go away.
Each side will use everything at its disposal to tar and feather the other one with.
One California critter sent out a fund raiser right afterward based on this. El Sicko!
That is patently not true. There is a reason that one side---not that of conservatives---consistently, determinedly, and relentlessly goes home winners.
They fight, they rage, they battle, they win.
This is a brilliant smackdown of the sycophantic left and the despicable tricks they play when a mass shooter pop off.
Glenn also supported people who rejected the vaccine or questioned its efficiency.
Not all voices from the left are devoid of reason.
I may not always agree with Glenn or Jimmy Dore, but I will at least listen to their side.
“They fight, they rage, they battle, they win.”
Well that part is true. We should emulate them.
I have never understood the freak out humans have at certain kinds of events. Non stop perpetual coverage for this when more people than this are killed every weekend in Chicago alone. Its like when 200 people did in a plane wreck with 24/7 coverage where people die in horrific car wrecks every hour of every day

And there is a hell of a lot of mental illness. The prevalence of schizophrenia in the United States is about 0.5%. That's one person in two hundred.
Yes both sides use political issues to fundraise. Only one side is vicious enough to go for the jugular every. Single. Time. And with lies!
“They fight, they rage, they battle, they win.”
I agree that the left has no shame about exploiting any kind of tragedy for political gain, whereas the right is reluctant to engage like that and is not very good at projecting the feigned outrage that the left has perfected. But remember, this only works because the left has the unwavering support of the legacy media.
