As an Amurkin, I am used to this sort of sentiment, more or less openly aired in public political discussion. The only thing "over the line" about it is the proposed target, the method and attitude are quite acceptable for "enemies". Given our current President's "unusual appearance", it is easy to see why this "Southern gentleman" got confused about the proper dog whistles to use in order to be discreet.


In fairness, I must point out that this sort of rubbish is ubiquitous.
