Anthony Sabatini, who is running for Congress in Florida's 11th district, reportedly made the remarks during June's Florida Teenage Republicans Youth Summit.
Once again, the Right sees this as a WAR. Not a figurative war, but a literal war - with weapons and victims and actual physical attacks.
Once again, the Left sees this as just a damn game which they never take seriously and can’t be bothered to see Republicans as a very serious threat to this country and our way of live. While the Left posts stupid memes online thinking they eviscerated the other side through humor, the Right is stockpiling supplies, forming militias and training with assault rifles.
Even when we catch these right wing nuts attacking the capitol, the best we can do it give them a slap on the wrists.
This is a very nice concise way of saying it, but I will add one more layer.
Elected Republican politicians are fighting a war, Republican voters are fighting a war, elected Democratic politicians are playing politics, all while Democratic voters are sitting home and playing games and thinking this is all a meme.
Some right-wing people see it as war, some left-wing people also definitely see it as war. There are also plenty of left and right wing people who don’t. It’s not exactly fair to generalize either.

The Democrats are playing politics, the Republicans are fighting a war of extermination.

No it’s not. It’s a facile, extremely disingenuous interpretation of people you disagree with.
Don’t be an intellectual stooge of extreme and dishonest rhetoric.

Yes, the wings aren’t cohesive things. The far right seems to have a more armed presence tho.
