1. The party of "tough on crime."

This is beyond disgusting. The article doesn't seem to say why the child rapist was pardoned.

Patrick Baker, who looks relatively young, was found guilty of a violent home invasion/murder and impersonating a peace officer. What are the odds he won't commit more violent felonies?

EDIT: FWIW, in the book Dangerous Charisma, the author, a CIA profiler, predicts that if Trump is voted out, the most dangerous period will be between the election and his last day in office.

This is within his power to lash out.

Just a guess on my part.
