Idc about what Trump's gonna say, his Maggats are going to see this as the literal starting shot in the race to escalation.

It does feel awfully convenient that someone who you can't pin down politically either way starts shooting (and misses!) as a sort of excuse to do it.

The genie's out of the bottle now. An runaway escalation of violence is pretty much guaranteed, and boy am I lucky I'm not in the States to witness it.
