“Couldn’t happened to a nicer fellow but was it staged,” Marsaw wrote in a follow-up post, shared by Matthew Hurtt of the Leadership Institute.

“This is my last post, Trump supporters tried to come for me and I had to block them but yet y’all can’t see the wrong that he does.”

.....

Marsaw’s posts have since been deleted or set to private after going viral.

After facing backlash for the words of his field director, Thompson provided a statement to Fox News’ Aishah Hasnie:

She wasn’t fired for saying it. She was fired for saying it publicly. His whole team thinks this way, she was just the only one stupid enough to say it publicly.

Of course, you only say these things during your interview, but not "on paper".

She is gone from his universe to pop up soon in some other democrat senator’s universe.

And we see the caliber of people working for Democrat congressmen.

Politically it was smart for him to get rid of her. But she will probably land on her feet with some other leftist political job.

Good thing X wasn’t around in 1864, or she would have been fired for cheering John Wilkes Booth. Diarrhea of the mouth, constipation of the brain, and it’s all sh!t either way.

No one noticed she was a psycho for 3+ years.
Her original interview for the job must have been interesting.

Yep. Probably has it all lined up, with a glowing letter of recommendation from her former boss.

Haven’t found a picture that can be pasted here yet. But I’ve seen her now, and you’re 100% right. Waste of a good bus.

Yup. Not ‘openly’ employed by them. Maybe next dean at some MS university.

Replacement won’t be any different other than better impulse control.

Congressman’s only concern was for his image, not a word of condolence to the victims or condemnation of the shooter.

Attitudes flow down from the top. He can resign now too, the ahole.
