At the time the House was barely Republican controlled. We know Flake standing on 3rd base was at best a Rino. The shooter walked up to the 3rd base fence and did he take the gravy shot and take out Flake? Did he take the 2nd or 3rd easiest republican to kill at short stop to catcher? No he took the 4th longest shot at 2nd base. Think about why. Scalise was the closest republican from a state with a democrat Gov. In my opinion this was not just a hate crime against republicans it was also an attempt to switch the House. Govs. appoint the replacements. Why has no one else thought of this? Am I wrong?
