He never connected those two thoughts together.
Anyway, this thread has gone off the rails. I really hope conservatives respect Mollie's family's wishes unlike the way they acted with the Rich's.
Exploiting a family's grief to make a bad argument is deplorable.
It seems to me that the media is exploiting Mollie's death as much as anyone else. Her death is no doubt a tragedy. It's tragic that an illegal killed her for apparently no good reason beside Mollie rebuffing his advances. It's tragic that this guy was even in the country to begin with.
Comparing this to Seth Rich is a bit of a stretch. Seth Rich was part of a political machine, and was mysteriously shot in the back while walking home from a bar after 3 AM. Mollie Tibbets was a college student at Iowa, dogsitting for her boyfriend and was abducted, sexually abused, and killed while running on a rural road.
