Thanks for pointing out to us that you’re unable to differentiate the distinctions between mass murdering terrorists and political rivals.

Or for that matter, the difference between persecution and prosecution.

Political rivals are terrorists if you're radical enough

Good point. I guess all of Biden’s bases are covered, should Trump’s arguments hold water with the courts.
