Cesar Sayoc drank the MAGA Kool-Aid and allegedly sent bombs to Trump's frequent targets for demonization. Trump airily denies the slightest responsibility. Republicans? I can't hear you?

[Jim Sciutto @jimsciutto]

Asked if he would now tone down his rhetoric, Trump said “I could really tone (the rhetoric) up because, you know, the media has been really unfair to me”.

[Rep. Eric Swalwell @RepSwalwell]

If you are dismissing these #MailBombs as a Dem plot, take a deep breath, step back, & don’t be so pessimistic about America. Our strength during hard times is unity. A call to unite should start from the Oval Office. It won’t. But among ourselves we can unite & denounce terror.

[Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES]

1. Whether Cesar Sayoc is sick or evil or maybe a bit of both will become clearer in the days ahead. Certainly he was a loser. A loser who latched onto Trump’s cult of personality and virtuous victimhood. His failures could be explained by the conspiracies and minorities who

Accompanying all the murderous messages on the suspect's van are the words "I am Donald Trump and I approve this message."

[David Axelrod @davidaxelrod]

This is kind of basic:
If you have the biggest platform on the planet and you use it to rail against political opponents and the media as “evil” and “enemies of the people,” and you celebrate acts of violence, you are licensing enmity and further acts of violence. Period.

There is only 1 polling place for 27,000 people in Dodge City, KS, which is 60% Hispanic, & it's being moved outside of town, 1 mile from nearest bus stop. Now election officials sent mail to new voters listing wrong polling place https://t.co/tceKxiI2rD

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

Patriotism entails paying taxes in full, promoting civility and decency, guarding our democracy, avoiding racism and misogyny, not using public office for personal gain, preserving the freedom of the press, and respecting political opponents. Mr. President, you are no patriot.

[Senator Adam Schiff @SenAdamSchiff]

You say there are good people on both sides of a neo-Nazi rally.

Suggest that immigrants are all murders, rapists and gang members.

Praise a politician who assaulted a reporter.

And it’s CNN’s fault someone sent them a bomb?

We know you have no decency, but have you no shame?

These black brothers saw a woman paying for gas with pennies and gave her money from their pockets. They had no idea that her husband had just died and she was struggling.

This is what loving your neighbor looks like. More of this please!✌🏾❤️

[Steven Beschloss @StevenBeschloss]

He's barely human. Look at the body language. And the words: A bad original concept? Carried out poorly? The Saudis butchered a resident of the US, employed by an American company w/ American children--& this sociopath can't bring himself to condemn them for their horrific crime.

[Frank Rich @frankrichny]

“Egregious!” “Abhorrent!”: Use of fancy words sends message to base that he didn’t write statement and of course doesn’t believe it.

[Beau Willimon @BeauWillimon]

Sarah Sanders (@PressSec) you just accused @CNN’s Jeff Zucker of trying to “attack and divide” while claiming that everyone should unite against threats of political violence. Do you remember when your boss tweeted this...?
