Former President Donald Trump made heartless comments about the brutal hammer attack on Nancy Pelosi’s husband, Paul, during a bizarre pitch to California voters Friday.

Paul Pelosi was violently attacked with a hammer last year during a home break-in by David DePape, and underwent surgery for a fractured skull.

“How’s her husband doing?” Trump said, jeeringly, adding, “She’s against having a wall at our border even though she has a wall around her house—which obviously didn’t do a very good job.”

"Jeeringly"

I bet pelosi got cheap with his male escort and showed him to the door without paying him for the sex.

If some whacko clubbed Trump in the haid with a hammer, leftists everywhere would rejoice. Stop pretending your side has the moral high ground. It's laughable. 

You misunderstand me. If that happened I would be shocked and dismayed at anyone who cheered. 
I can’t claim that “my side” has any moral high ground. But it’s clear to me that anyone who laughs and cheers Trump on in these situations is in the moral low ground.

Adverbs are fun.  Could have gone with "sarcasticly" or "sardonically" or better yet "sarDonically", but its all good.

First, humor can be had anywhere. Some of the most memorably funny jokes have been made by comedians daring to tackle the most unfunny, horrible, and taboo of topics, such as Sam Kinneson on starvation in Africa or George Carlin on rape. The only time in my life that I ever pulled over onto the side of the road because I was a danger to myself and other drivers was caused by laughing too hard during the last two minutes of Gilbert Gottfried's interaction with Amy Heckerling's babysitter on the Howard Stern show, revolving around the Jewish Holocaust.

All three of these can be found on YouTube.

Second, making fun of Nancy Pelosi's hypocrisy in front of an audience that hates her is low hanging fruit. Trump had a good joke and has mastered the art of comedic timing.

Third, it's not like late night comics hold back in their Trump jokes. The proper response is to laugh if the jokes are funny, not get indignant at them.

 

You seem like a very thoughtful person to me. I disagree with many of your political views but I think your motives are good. 
 

Defending this sort of behavior seems beneath you, IMO.

Idiots like Paul need a good whack in the head.

This forum makes me sad for our country.  There's literally video of this dude breaking into the 83 year old's house and bashing him with a hammer at 2 in the morning.  There's also the 911 call that Pelosi placed.

And all the conservatives do is claim it was his gay lover, Paul was up partying, it's the fault of defund the police that this dude with no record broke in and bashed Paul.

If I was a less reasonable dude I'd tell you all what I think of you and people like you.

But instead I feel incredibly bad at what horrible lives you must lead to come to the conclusion that you have and how easily you all are swayed by alt right media.

 

I'm inclined to believe the Pelosi's official story is the real one as the police bodycam footage corroborates it. 

But they weren't exactly forthcoming. were they? It took weeks to release the video during which time, nobody knew anything. In the mean time, all these other, better, more hilarious stories were given time to germinate and flourish and we were given the opportunity to get creative and speculate.

I don't know if anyone actually believes the gay lover story, it's just funny.

A good open-handed smack may have been appropriate, but a bludgeoning with a hammer is a bridge too far in my estimation.

And yet those stories are still wildly believed, based on the posts ITT, despite the clear evidence showing the opposite.

Oh well.  People are largely mean spirited when it comes to politics these days.

Unfortunate but the reality.

Widely?  Or maybe you were actually going for wildly? 

 

Me, I think folks are just having fun at Paul Pelosi and Nancy's expense.  I don't believe they really believe the gay narrative since when one's gay midnight lover is coming over one makes sure he can gain entry without waking the neighbors.  Its all in good, incredibly petty and juvenile, fun.

Doesn't everyone at some point have NO criminal record? Doesn't really matter if he had one prior to this or not. 

Point being dems want to defund police, expect them to come when THEY have an issue...BUT also pass laws that will allow guys like this little to no jail time. The policies that Pelosi 'believes' in encourages this kind of behavior - it's the POLICE that are bad...not these guys.

Except that Paul Pelosi was brutally attacked by a deranged Trump supporter. And that Donald Trump encourages this sort of political violence. (Or at least he winks at it.) And conservatives here and elsewhere claimed that the whole thing was a fake and the guy was really Pelosi’s gay lover. And that was supposed to be in “good fun”? Sorry I find nothing funny about it. 
 

You know early on during Trump’s term there was a female comedian who suggested decapitation. Some idiots found that funny. I wasn’t amused, I was disgusted. Something’s aren’t worthy of laughter.

My point is that funding or defunding the police isn’t going to stop a crazy person with no criminal record from breaking into your home and hitting your spouse with a hammer. So I don’t see how Pelosi deserved this or is reaping the consequences of what she voted for. Not sure how many different ways I can keep saying this.

It's weird how there's crime in the US regardless of which party controls the presidency.

Weird how Trump, GWB, etc didn't simply eradicate crime since it's the dems policies that make crime happen. 

Yeah, they already tried this, and coupled it with refusing to prosecute and redefining crime as well.  Ignoring it is not working, and in fact pretending its not happening is moving voters aware from the Democrat Party, so there is some good coming of it

You're right, it's not going to stop someone committing the crime. Sure. 

I am divided on the "deserves" or not. Reaping consequences of voting? Yes. She should reap what she sows; as should everyone who votes - elections have consequences. Does anyone deserve the violence? No, not really. I don't wish harm on my worst enemies, but I do wish them karma.

I am saying we follow the Democrat doctrine to the letter, he is charged with nothing and immediately let back out on to the street, in fact drop him off at the Pelosi's front yard.   Why should the pleasure of criminality be limited only to their constituents?

Heck you read it here every day and in this very thread.  Imagine some democratic leader constantly making fun of things like the Paul Pelosi incident.  Yet Trump mocks and makes fun and disparages anyone from anonymous court clerks to unknown state election officials to anyone else his tiny mind tells him aggrieved him.

And his sycophants cheer and clap like the unthinking sociopaths many are. 

He has mocked handicapped people, disabled veterans and military personnel killed or captured in action. He has always been a vile, self-servicing ass, and I'm going to remember this thread when they bury his fat ass.

Pelosi supports letting people who’ve committed felony assault off without charges? That’s wild and it would definitely change my mind on this karma business, I look forward to your link.

Such a weird take.  Crime didn't start with democrats, it won't end if republicans get back in charge.

Yet you insist on making hyperbolic claims as if only democrats struggle with crime prevention and enforcement.  We could easily go back in time to when the crime rate was much much higher under certain republican regimes and blame that crime on republicans.

But some of us aren't children who need to assign blame to only one party or the next.

Some of us however seem to need to do just that.

Police usually don't just release information and evidence such as this. You have to make a freedom-of-information request, and police departments often can take their sweet-ass time processing those requests. Prosecutors and investors typically would prefer not to release anything and want the media to just go away.

Even though state law usually sets a deadline for when an entity must release the information of provide a reason not to release it, they still can drag their feet, leaving the requester to have to file something with a state attorney general's office to force the entity to release the material. And even then it might take a lawsuit to force the material's release.

Of course, those prone to conspiracy theories will run in another direction with time passing before a video's release.
