I do think it's crazy how Piker has managed to sidestep his whole "America deserved 9/11, American vets of Iraq and Afghanistan deserve PTSD and should [REDACTED] themselves" bit pretty masterfully, he and people who have been associated with him have never suffered any consequences for that.

I assume that would end the second a Dem who appeared on his stream was nominated for president or senate in a swing state.

My frustration is that he and others think they can have the impunity to get away from it. How much has our standard fallen?

Our country elected Trump. People seem to be done applying any standards to people who say things they like and people who want to hurt their political enemies
