Florida Representative Debbie Wasserman-Schultz has announced she will resign as chair of the Democratic National Committee. The resignation is to become effective after the party's convention. The organisation's e-mail system was hacked; leaked e-mails appear to confirm accusations that Wasserman-Schultz had taken action favouring Hillary Clinton in her contest against Bernie Sanders to become the Democratic Party's presidential nominee. Sanders had previously called for Wasserman-Schultz to resign, a request he reiterated in light of the leak.
Wasserman-Schultz said in a statement:
I know that electing Hillary Clinton as our next president is critical for America's future. I look forward to serving as a surrogate for her campaign in Florida and across the country to ensure her victory.

So, in other words, for your own position to make sense, you have to convince yourself that your political opponents are violent, evil, stupid, and hateful, in that order.

You say this as if it were some kind of stretch! When it comes to ammosexuals, no convincing is required! It is just what they are. Very scared and racist and cowardly people clinging to their guns and religion in the vain attempt to compensate for an absence of principles, wisdom, and courage.
