Surprisingly, even a couple of DUmmies admit the guy was an asshole up to no good at all, and had it coming, they're just upset Trump got the score and quivering in their booties about blowback.
History lesson, DU: Being so fearful of blowback that you do nothing when attacked in small ways means that you vastly increase your chances of getting smacked really hard in a big way. This is also the result if you don't do something necessary when it needs to be done because 'The wrong dude(s) might get credit for it.'
