Trump: being Minnesota nice to a federal agent is grounds for summary execution

While his minions create various fictional scenarios to try to defend an indefensible shooting, Trump has the necessary lack of inhibitions to explain what actually happened and to approve:

That’s what this was about. “Men are afraid that women will laugh at them. Women are afraid that men will kill them.” That’s it.
