Donald Trump was targeted Sunday in a second apparent assassination attempt in as many months.
An eagle-eyed Secret Service agent reportedly spotted the barrel of a gun in bushes a few hundred yards from where the former president was playing golf and shot at the would-be assassin, who was later arrested.
It’s a frightening development that highlights the recklessness of the hateful rhetoric constantly aimed at Trump by his political opponents, even after he was shot at a rally in Pennsylvania in July.
Last week Kamala Harris falsely accused Trump of calling Nazis “fine people”, promising a “bloodbath,” and being responsible for “the worst attack on our democracy since the Civil War.”
She and Biden and surrogates constantly exaggerate the J6 Capitol riot and use it to frame Trump as a “threat to democracy.”
Joe Biden has labeled Trump and “MAGA Republicans” as “semi-fascists” and domestic terrorists.
Tim Walz called Trump a “fascist” and “threat to Democracy” who will “put people’s lives in danger.”
On Saturday Democratic Senator Chris Murphy described Trump as “a candidate explicitly running on the promise of political violence.”
In Orwellian fashion they accuse Trump and his supporters of stoking violence, when the evidence is almost all the other way.
Conveniently, whenever Democrats are feeling the heat on a damaging issue, there are always bomb threats or phony-looking racist leaflets to distract the media and get maximum publicity.
