First, I will say this: I hate political violence. I do not want to see any politician assassinated. And I really HATE Trump. I would much rather see him humiliated with another election defeat in November.

But, I will say this: In many ways, the right has institaged political violence and even normalized it. If you look at what are considered domestic terrorism, they are virtually all done by right-wing fanatics. And, let's not forget how the right laughed and cheered about the attempted kidnapping of the Michigan governor, or the hammer attack on Paul Pelosi.

But, for a refresher of the violent rhetoric in the wake of this, this video sums it up nicely:

What was the damage during the BLM protests?


At a cost of approximately $500 million, local unrest after the murder of George Floyd was the second most destructive in United States history, after the 1992 Los Angeles riots. About 60% of the financial losses from rioting in Minneapolis–Saint Paul were uninsured.''

First off, you're delusional if "political violence" were instigated by "right wingers" Jesus fuck...who were rioting when Trump won? who were crying in the streets? and guess what? a left winger just upped the ante even if it's a lone wolf....only left wingers will follow through with the assassination....
so tell me...was it really "right wingers" who instigate the violence?

Right, the "insurrection".

Imagine a bunch of people with no weapons staging an insurrection. If you're having trouble, use the dictionary.

Make it make sense.
Tell it to families of dead police officers. Sheesh.

You change definitions to suit your needs as often as the mentally ill change their gender to suit theirs.

US Secret Service Director Blames ‘Sloped Roof’ for Security Failure It turns out that the roof's slope was a less than 10 degrees — hardly cause for concern. This excuse alone PROVES Kimberly Cheatle's incompetence. She must be fired immediately. “That building in particular has a sloped roof at its highest point, and so, you know, there’s a safety factor that we considered. We didn’t want to put someone on a sloped roof, so the decision was made to secure the building from the inside.”
Wonder if she`s ever watched roofers on a high pitched roof? What an asshole.

A president's support of a peaceful protest does not an insurrection make.

Your medication is wearing off. Take some more and take a nap.
😂peaceful protest riiight

Within 36 hours, five people died: one was shot by Capitol Police, another died of a drug overdose, and three died of natural causes, including a police officer. Many people were injured, including 174 police officers. Four officers who responded to the attack died by suicide within seven months.

US authorities learned of potential Iranian assassination plot against Trump weeks before deadly shooting

US authorities were warned about a potential assassination plot against former President Donald Trump by Iran weeks before the deadly shooting at Saturday’s rally — underscoring concerns about the level of protection that the presidential candidate was given, according to a report.

Although there is no known connection between Thomas Matthew Crooks and the Iranian republic — considered a rogue state by the US government — advance knowledge of such a threat appears wildly out of alignment with Trump’s level of protection at the Butler, Pa., rally.

The Trump campaign declined to address the outlet’s inquiry whether it was aware of the threat, but the Secret Service has “added protective resources and capabilities to the former President’s security detail,” agency spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said in a statement.

The Secret Service even went so far as to repeatedly warn the Trump campaign not to hold outdoor rallies, the sources said, due to the difficulties of controlling access.

One source told CNN that earlier in this year’s contest, the Trump campaign curbed spontaneous outdoor events where attendees weren’t first screened by the Secret Service.

When DJT was President there were apparently several attempts on his life. Including a close call in Scotland back in 2018 or 2019 that resulted in one of his bodyguards being killed. That news was swept under the carpet so as to not alarm the public.
I am pretty sure there have been attempts on every President's life while they are in office.

I haven't heard about one killing Trump's bodyguard before, but it is possible.
I believe a secret service agent died of a stroke while on a Scotland trip with Trump.

Is it possible that something else happened in Scotland? I guess anything is possible but it would seem it would require a whole lot of people to keep a Presidential assassination attempt quiet. You would think Trump would know and he can't keep anything quiet.
