'This is What Happens When The President Calls You The Enemy of the People'

“The View” (ABC) opened their Wednesday broadcast by addressing the suspicious packages sent to various political figures and media organizations.

The View addressed these developments at the top of the show, and as they remarked the situation, co-host Sunny Hostin invoked a former CNN colleague she’s been in contact with who had this to say: “This is what happens when the president calls you the enemy of the people.”

(conservatives) Abby Hunstman and Meghan McCain said it was important to avoid speculating so soon ...

“Why did CNN get the bomb?” Hostin said to Huntsman.
“You don’t have to be Sherlock Holmes to figure this one out,” Joy Behar said.
Whoopi Goldberg concluded the segment by saying political disagreements are fine, but threats like this are “not the American way.”

Let's hope the blue wave turns into a blue tsunami over this.

Weaselspeak for "This looks really bad for conservatives, so let's not speculate, mmmmkay?" Not applicable to the Relentless Caravan of Death and Disease that is the current hobgoblin inhabiting the little minds of the likes of McCain and Huntsman.
