"I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn't lose voters."

Or spend a lifetime committing egregious crimes and not face one day in prison.

Meanwhile there is a nationwide manhunt for the CEO assassin who probably lost a loved one thanks to Brian Thompson's callous, cruel and nefarious approach to deal with sick and suffering poor Americans who spent years dutifully paying their UHC premiums making him fabulously wealthy.

How many Americans would love to sit on the imminent jury if the suspect is taken alive?
