Laurence Tribe is usually known for his bad legal takes. But on Monday he decided to show us his hidden Christian side and quote the Bible. Now, even though we're already heard a thousand takes from leftists blaming Donald Trump for his own assassination attempt because of his use of violent rhetoric ("bloodbath," anyone)?
Would you like to add any context, professor?
“You reap what you sow”— Galatians 6:6-10

So do you, Larry. So do you.

Since you chose to paraphrase, I think the full weight of the passage is necessary for context:
— Spooky Joe (@jmotivator) July 15, 2024
"6 Nevertheless, the one who receives instruction in the word should share all good things with their instructor.
7 Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he…
… A man reaps what he sows. 8 Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life. 9 Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. 10 Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers."
Do you think you and fellow Democrats follow that example, Lawrence? Should Democrats reap what they have sown?
Trying to use the Bible to justify attempted murder simply proves the Shakespearian axiom that even the devil can quote Scripture. https://t.co/IAF6846bYA

Imagine if someone said this about an attempt on an abortionist

I feel sorry for any students subjected to such an ignorant, pedantic buffoon.

Tell us Laurence Tribe why exactly you think the President deserved to be shot and an innocent bystander murdered. In detail

CNN and MSNBC would be smart to ban you

MSNBC pulled Joe and Mika off the air this morning.
How does this bring down the temperature in the country?

Quoting the Bible to justify an assassination attempt where a fire chief lost his life.

You and I do not serve the same God.
Repent.
There’s no bottom to you horrible people.

You are a bad person. God knows.

I’m glad that you learned nothing from this weekend.

You’re nothing if not consistent.
That's good Larry, keep doubling down, show the world who you really are.

I hope this is a self-reflection post.

I’d be very careful trying to use scripture as a gotcha, especially while being so utterly tone deaf and out of line.
— Josh Hampton (@jsh97p) July 15, 2024
Apparently Trump reaped what you liberals sowed.
— AmericanPapaBear (@AmericaPapaBear) July 15, 2024
Thanks for being the worst people in the country.
You had best pray that is not the case, Laurence.
— HoR_Emperor (@HorEmperor) July 15, 2024
You are a horrible person. That’s the tweet.

He could have been talking about anything. But what we've seen progressives sow is the idea that Trump is Hitler, a fascist, a Russian agent, and the end of democracy.
