So a registered Republican tried to assassinate the leader of the Republican Party, when he and his followers constantly agitate for political violence, including the hanging of their own VP, and then the Republicans blame the assassination attempt on Democrats? Got it.

@tristansnell Objectively, it's a 'them problem'.

But they'll make it an 'us problem' because that's all they know how to do. Just like they have with abortion access, equal marriage, gun ownership, the legal system...

@tristansnell It is laughable for Biden and others to say there's no place for this violence in America. Assassinating Presidents is an American tradition - Garfield, McKinnely, Lincoln, JFK and attempted assassinations of Ford, Reagan and candidate George Wallace. America is the most violent gun-worshiping nation in the western world by far
@tristansnell Only a MAGAt can accept their own logic?

@tristansnell

I suspect Crooks was depressed, angry and suicidal. I think this was about his suicidal nihilistic rage. Since mass shootings have become common, Trump was an opportunity to do something even bigger and more dramatic while committing suicide by cop.

@RuamiGrey @tristansnell

and there's potentially 16 million more of him out there.
