At Long Last, Have You No Decency?

By Hubie and Bertie

Has Benedict Donald finally gone too far? Maybe.

His deranged (and ultimately ridiculous) tweet about the murders of Rob and Michele Reiner has attracted Republican denunciations, and they may not be done yet. Representative Thomas Massie said, "I challenge anyone to defend it." Marjorie Taylor Greene said the killings were "a family tragedy, not about politics or personal enemies." Even silly election fraudster Jenna Ellis said, "A man and his wife were murdered last night. This is NOT the appropriate response."

And then there's New York Congressman Mike Lawler, who must be shaking in his boots about his re-election chances next year: "This statement is wrong. Regardless of one's political views, no one should be subjected to violence, let alone at the hands of their own son."

Hey, New York Republicans, what do your 2026 gubernatorial candidates have to say about Donald's repellent drivel? Apparently, not much.

We expect Elise Stefanik and Bruce Blakeman will try to avoid this shitshow at all costs — not because Trump has crossed a line with them but because they fear any condemnation of Trump's decomposing psyche will cost them dearly in the primary endorsement sweepstakes.

We've all been warned that the absurd MAGA outpourings and accusations after the shooting of Charlie Kirk will pale in comparison to what the Trumpsters will do when Donald himself finally dies. But like Rick Wilson, the majority of Americans may very well find their better angels escaping them. Rob Reiner's films are loved by people on both sides of the aisle — just ask Ted Cruz. We cats HISS.
