The video is actually inconclusive…. just hope it was a Liberal that got hit.
I hope it was a “moderate” and it knocked some conservative sense into his head.
I don´t know about the ´pretend´part. That looked like a fairly stout shot to me.
He crouched down just before impact and took a pretty good shot to the hip.
If he stayed upright, did the little jump/hop move and kinda rolled up on the hood he might have walked away.
Sucks to be him.
