Bernie Sanders found himself at the center of the Steve Scalise shooting this week after it was revealed that the shooter was an avid and active Sanders supporter. Now, something the senator has said is getting him in hot water.
Sanders was initially praised for his condemnation of the violence — which is a pretty low bar, but good to see nonetheless in these times of partisan extremism.
But the bipartisan praise of Sanders may have come too soon. While he may have condemned the action itself, he doesn’t seem to be changing his extreme rhetoric against Republicans. His latest comments, which came right after the shooting, are actually pretty explicit. He wants his supporters to go after Republicans “in every way.”

Treaon???
Arrest him for sedition and treason
Looney is in need of an enema and a lobotomy…
Bernie is a troitor to the constitution he needs to be. Removed from. Office.
Despise this anti American socialist
When are they going to get these vile creatures out of the public eye ? They are causing way more harm than good and by way more i mean “more harm and no good” !!!
To incite a riot or call people to “fight back in every way that you can” like Bernie Sanders instructs his followers is abetting felony when they attack, beat-up and murder other Amrican citizens. Bernie is as guilty as those who actually murder other innocent Americans, who stand up for their beliefs. .
Same as Obama was.
Bernie, grow up. It’s not the sixties anymore.
So mature and patriotic!
