Obama Aide Wishes For Pence, McConnell, Ryan Death — Steve Scalise Shuts Him Down Hard

Ben Rhodes, a former Obama deputy national security adviser to Barack Obama, wasn’t too happy with the GOP tax-cut passed by Congress this week.

So, like some liberals, he simply decided to call for the death of his political opponents.

First, Dan Pfieffer, who was Obama’s White House communications director, decided to communicate his own smug little wish.

Hahahahahaha! Oh, they look so silly! And it’s four white people! (Congressional leadership for the Democrats, four white people. But never mind that!)

Then Rhodes chimed in.

Oh, that is truly hilarious! See, ‘cuz they’d be dead, the House Speaker, the Senate leader, the vice president.

Enter GOP Rep. Steve Scalise of Louisiana, who was nearly killed in a shooting in June during a Congressional baseball practice. The bullet traveled across his pelvis, shattered his femur and broke other bones, injured internal organs, and caused severe bleeding. He’s undergone numerous surgeries as doctors tried to put him back together, as he said “like rebuilding Humpty Dumpty.”
