Or he could just have ignored it, which as I said I'd consider less noble and a bit of a coward move, but ok.

By his reaction though, it's an emboldenment for those chanting that spooky line. And it seems to me that's how they would take it, as approval. And that I find wrong, since I find the notion behind the chant so nefarious and I'd also think a head of the Justice department has a responsibility to speak against undermining the very principles of the justice system (like demanding jailtime for a political opponent is).


--- All that said while admitting I'm guilty of an initial overreact. Not a big one though.

He’s from the camp that did a huge amount of mud slinging on the trail, and does it now to deflect. He could’ve manned up and said “hey, I appreciate your energy but you know what would be better? If we move on.”

Instead of using it as a platform to promote a positive meaaage or to try and get people to stop being erroneously angry, he chuckled and gave silent approval to continue all the hate coming from the right these days.

What is wrong with you guys?

You want members of the Trump administration to act like men?  Trump isn't even a man.
