Well, that's unsurprising. The default state for these MAGA chuds is "violent moron."

Can't wait to hear Trump say the guy is a hero and deserves a pardon.

But why would Kamala pardon him?

For those unaware, like the perp here, you can't wear election related material in or around polling places. It's called "Electioneering".

Huh. I thought I knew about this, but I didn’t realize it applied to individual voters. I thought it was more geared towards volunteers, demonstrators, poll workers, etc. Thanks!

Those pesky right-wingers with their over-active amygdala just can't control themselves and act like adults.

Taking it one further: how shitty does your life have to be to respond with violence because someone asked you to follow the rules. This person is small and weak and pathetic.
