There are only 9 Democrat senators in the state body.

Pretty sure she will be gone.

The backlash continues for Democratic Senator Maria Chappelle-Nadal from a posted comment on Facebook last week that expressed hope that President Donald Trump would be assassinated.
Republican Lt. Gov. Mike Parson sent a letter to senators Tuesday urging Chappelle-Nadal be expelled. “I am calling on the Missouri Senate to go into special session in conjunction with Veto Session, with the purpose of expelling Senator Chappelle-Nadal from the body under the authority vested to the Senate under Article III, Section 18 of the Missouri Constitution.”
Chappelle-Nadal offered a personal apology to the president and his family on Sunday but has resisted calls to resign. Missouri U.S. Sen. Claire McCaskill, Congressman Lacy Clay and the Missouri Democratic Party have called for her resignation.
Sen. Paul Wieland of Jefferson County and Sen. Dave Schatz of Franklin County, both Republicans, told News 4 if Chappelle-Nadal doesn’t step down, the senate should step in and remove her from office.
Parson’s request for a special session came hours after Republican and Democratic state Senate leaders removed Chappelle-Nadal from all of her legislative committee assignments.

Needs to be censured at least. Public officals should not be saying inflamatory stuff like that.
Not sure what the laws of Missouri are, but a recall election would seem to be the best route to removal.

If she's not, you can expect tons more emboldened retards to show their true feelings.

Which is what they want so they can push their first amendment narrative.
She just needs to be removed. It's not about agreeing with a political stance, it's just having some form of respect for the office.

But but but some guy named Tyrone from some obscure website said it would be nice to use a John Deer tractor on protestors.

It would be a good thing for the country if somebody , anybody condemned these kind of death fantasies in the public square. Just stop wishing people dead people, foreign terrorists, boy band alumni and Totalitarian dictators excepted.

That's racissssssss......... She is most probably representing a majority black district in the St. Louis or KC area....it is not going t happen. Hell, the unfortunate thing is that she probably just gave herself job security.

I find it amazing that people that stupid are able to get elected to any level of public office.

quote:Wrong on the censured part. No one should say what she said unless under truly oppressive circumstances. However, wanting this woman to be punished is absolutely anti freedom of expression. You can't say you are opposed to Antifa people and also want this woman to be punished in any form. It's completely hypocritical.

Not really....elected officials should be held to a higher standard. Why? Bc they are representing us and they INFLUENCE a lot of people. Having an elected call for the assassination of the President deserves swift and severe punishment.

bullshite! Freedom of expression is choosing to dye your hair green and putting fish hooks in your lips. She is an elected official who publicly called for the assasination of the president of the United States. That is not freedom of expression, thats damn near criminal.

Talk about "fitness for office."

Free speech has consequences Ms Nadal. Poor way to score political points.

Identity politics completely circumvent intelligence.
