"He then allegedly pulled out a switchblade"

A switchblade that he was going to metaphorically carry for all his future political life.

Maybe we stopped this one.

This kid's street cred just went way up in MAGA's eyes.

Not sure why it's thought this would affect his chances.

Ryan Fournier ... accused of violently assaulting his girlfriend.

They're probably more disappointed he didn't rape her.

Supreme Court Justice or President? Tough call.

A good republican candidate for either I'd say.

This can't be the first time for his girlfriend. Why is she even within 1000 miles of this violent piece of sh**.

I don't understand why some women just keep hanging on until one day they're found beaten to a pulp or dead.

Honestly, I would be more surprised from a MAGA person not being abusive to women.
