    Not only that, and the constant death threats, but there was an actual attack on the Speaker of the House at her home… they attacked her husband while she was away. Don’t think they haven’t forgotten that. A mob can maybe be summoned again, sure. But, they can absolutely get lone terrorists to come to your home if you vote against the maga.
