(preface: I agree that trump has done multiple executable offenses)

She tweeted "we execute pedophiles not elect them." While retweeting a Trump quote, so it's kinda clear who she was referring to without any admission of his pedophilia.

No, she didn't tweet that. She didn't say "we," she's an American citizen.

She said "they".

Very important use of language in this context.

My point was that it's clear she meant trump.

Ok, I just thought it was important to point out how she's being misquoted here, even by people who apparently agree with her.

Point taken. It was an honest mistake. I think I read it as the popular use of "we" that isn't quite literal. But I was mistaken.
