Leave it to Pod Bro Jon Favreau to weigh in on the threats against Democratic politicians and officials with intelligence and reason.
We kid, of course.
Earlier today, Ted Cruz unequivocally condemned the threats:
Violence is never OK. Reports of bombs sent to the homes of Obama, Clinton, and Soros are deeply, deeply disturbing. America is better than this. Political disagreements are fine, even healthy, but we should always be civil and respect each other’s humanity.
— Ted Cruz (@tedcruz) October 24, 2018
Which really set Favreau off:
Last night he told a crowd that Beto O’Rourke and Hillary Clinton should share a jail cell. https://t.co/Y3RxwI4tzo

Yeah? And?
How are those even remotely close to the same Thing?

How is someone's criminal history relevant to a bomb threat? Are you really that stupid?
— Mario V. (@zZeroEnigma) October 24, 2018
And saying that criminals belong in jail has what to do with advocating violence??
Nice try princess.

Yeah, folks. Keep conflating calls for law enforcement to punish criminals and acts of terrorist violence. That's the ticket. https://t.co/HWVuLRFOs6

Which is of course the same thing as saying they should be blown up by a bomb.
— JAC (@michcusejoe5) October 24, 2018
You seriously equate sending bombs to saying someone should be in prison? Brilliant.

We need more civility!
Also, saying that Clinton should have gone to jail is just like sending a bomb in the mail!
Mmkay, guys.

You think this helps, Jon?
What's your point?
— Small Gov Lizard (@smallgovlizard) October 24, 2018
And two weeks ago Hillary said we shouldn’t be civil to each other. Your point? https://t.co/B45mwh5xNK

He doesn’t have a point. He just thinks he does.
The only point he’s making is an unintentional one: That he’s not to be taken seriously. On anything. Ever.
You'll note the Pod bros can't just simply denounce violence. https://t.co/yCP8lgp81L

Heaven forbid.
Dude, not the type of issue to play politics. Give it a rest.
