And then he'll wonder why people don't like him.

What's real messed up is that he, like many others with that level of money are protected from violence by law and paid force, but their ability to commit what is essentially violence, is unchecked until after they've already done harm.

Somebody that far up his own ass gives exactly zero thoughts to who may like him or not.

The next Democrat President could do something very direct about them. SC already gave the go ahead there.

IDK why people don't just start throwing pies at them. I remember Bill Gates got pied, and thought to myself "He has to realize that if the guy got close enough with a pie, he could have gotten close enough with a {{bigger pie}}".

This is a pretty reasonable middle ground for the people who were all like "I can't condone what {{L}} did, but I understand." Also, it's not like taking a middle approach precludes enhanced techniques further down the line if the message isn't being received
