The Missouri Democrat Party responded to the post by calling to “burn” the home.

“The roof, the roof is on [fire emoji] we don’t need no water, let the ‘insert your word’ burn!” the Missouri Democrat Party’s official account wrote in a since-deleted response to Cooper’s post.

Libs of TikTok snagged a screenshot of the Missouri Democrat Party’s post before they deleted it.

“The official account of the Missouri Democratic Party expressing excitement about the possibility of a Trump supporter’s house burning down,” Libs of TikTok wrote.

“Here’s the Missouri Democrat Party advocating for a Trump supporter’s home to burn down. Sick. There’s no place for this kind of disgusting, violent rhetoric in Missouri,” Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO) said.

Fox News reports:

The Missouri Democratic Party did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.

The deleted tweet comes as a prominent Missouri Democratic lawmaker shells out thousands of dollars in private security costs, despite repeatedly calling for defunding the police.

Rep. Cori Bush’s campaign has funneled tens of thousands of dollars to her new husband, Courtney Merritts, for private security and other expenses during the first half of 2023, filings reviewed by Fox News Digital show.

The Missouri Democrat’s campaign, which blew past the second quarter filing deadline and could face potential fines, finally submitted her committee report a week late last month. The new filing shows Merritts pocketed $17,500 for security services and “wage expenses” between April and June.

Bush has said she requires protection due to previous attempts on her life. Since 2019, she’s dropped over a half million dollars into such expenses, which mainly has gone to PEACE Security.
