he said, "we have to get over it, move forward."
The commenters on tv looked as disgusted as we feel.
ON EDIT: I'm having a difficult time finding the other occasion when he used the "...have to get over it..." phrase.

(24,943 posts)Personally, I found it quite easy to get over TSF's near-death exp-ear-ience, and was totally fine with moving on before this happened.
It breaks my heart that TSF and a bunch of gun-humping Republicans are going to rack up millions of votes in November.

(11,780 posts)I think that was the one where he said he’d have run in to stop the shooter even if he didn’t have a gun. I don’t know how his fan club can stomach that shit. He wouldn’t have done anything if he had head to toe Kevlar and an assault rifle. But that’s not my point, after the first big shooting on his watch he made a statement that we had to do something to limit the guns. That lasted about one news cycle till the NRA, rethugs, and Russians got to him. He back pedaled immediately.

(11,780 posts)He’s so brave. I remember one time he was at the podium and there was a loud noise. The coward almost shit himself trying to get away. And that time they had an eagle by his desk and it flapped its wings. He almost fell out of his chair trying to get away. I can see why some people think his assassination attempt was staged. He bounced back quick enough to turn it into theater.

I wonder whose child needs to be killed in a mass shooting for people to decide enough is enough?
I still think photos of those killed this way ought to be out there.

(3,110 posts)And it doesn't matter if it's a 225 pound special forces operator or a seven year old. The bullet does its job very well. And with multiple 30 round magazines, the gun makes it very easy to kill lots of people quickly.
This is coming from someone who owns several guns and has hunted for the last umpteen years with them.

(11,780 posts)Nowadays airsoft where they have teams and battle. A few years ago I was selling a .41 magnum revolver. I showed to to him and offered him to feel it and sort of play with it (unloaded of course). He wouldn’t touch it which impressed me. I guess he knows there’s a big difference between video games and real life. I was glad for his reaction.

Isn't Election Day November 5, 2024, this year? So why would anyone be still campaigning two months later?

I wouldn't doubt he's thinking it, but there's folks talking to relatives, and they don't want to pass on lies like the MAGAs do

(62,674 posts)utterance of "... we have to get over it..." I believe I've heard him say this before the Perry, Iowa shooting.
They had a clip of him saying it on msnbc a few hours ago. Therefore I thought this was the second time he's done it.
