all i've read online is that there's a local station that's reported at least 1 casualty and 1 in critical
but that was on a smaller blog-style news site

It's so hard to find this story, since "trainwreck" is so commonly used to describe the GOP. All I can find are tweets.

lmfao are you all serious

every major news outlet is reporting nobody got hurt seriously

there is one blog news site called Jalopnik (on the same network as av club, deadspin) that's reporting that one other local news reported a nurse said 1 injury at least

but then in the same article said "none injured"

i'm not watching tv tho so if its on tv on like cnn and fox and cbs right now that there is one person dead pls let me know

I'm still not finding anyone else confirming it, or a source that isn't the White House. Only a couple of smaller entities are even talking about a "reported" death.

To be fair, if it was a train crash involving the DNC with casualties, conservatives would be yucking it up too.

Let's not pretend for a single second that either side is "better" in this regards, they're both full of the same shitty kinds of people.

if it had been the opposite and it has been DNC people, and people made jokes, they all would have been suspended. liberals call themselves the party of love but they always cheer when a conservative gets hurt or dies.

My only question is what did those people do to deserve a retreat in the first place?

They just patched together a budget for like 3 weeks. Shouldn't they be working towards a more permanent solution?

Being honest, I don't care about injuries or deaths on either side of the aisle, but that's because libs & cons alike are the enemy.

Not exactly cheering, but I'm also devoid of any fucks to give.
