The lefts assassination culture

We know they are violent. We know they believe in assassination when they don't get their way. I am a free speech advocate, but when you see the left's leadership calling for violence, I think the road has to stop there. Democrats have supported and called for the violence and people have died. Enough.

Who’s To Blame For The Left’s ‘Assassination Culture’? – Issues & Insights

According to a Rutgers Social Perception Lab-Network Contagion Research Institute brief, 55.2% of American on the left “reported that if someone murdered Donald Trump, they would be at least somewhat justified.” Overall, 38.5% hold the same belief.

Trump, who has survived a pair of assassination attempts (one of which was celebrated), is not the only legitimate target, say many Americans. The data show that nearly half, 48.6%, say murdering Elon Musk would be justified.

This “broader worldview” has been crafted by Democrats and a leftist media that have whipped roughly half the country into a raging frenzy. The former, from party leaders down, have encouraged uprisings and unrest, while the latter have been telling Americans for a decade that Trump is a racist, an authoritarian, a dictator and the direct offspring of Hitler if not his reincarnation.

It’s an effort to dehumanize him, which is a tacit approval for violent behavior. To this end, various playactors, politicians and grifters have:

  • Wanted to punch Trump in the face (Robert DeNiro)
  • Wished they could “take him behind the gym and beat the hell out of him” (Joe Biden)
  • Wondered when “was the last time an actor assassinated a president” (Johnny Depp)
  • Asked “where is John Wilkes Booth when you need him?” (actress Carole Cook),
  • Said the “donor class” is “still going to have go out and put a bullet in Donald Trump” (Rick Wilson, Lincoln Project),
  • “Thought an awful lot about blowing up the White House” (Madonna)
  • Felt inspired to “go and take out Trump tonight” (Rep. Maxine Waters)
  • Wished publicly that “somebody would kill Donald Trump” (academic and New York Times columnist John McWhorter)
  • Hoped that “maybe Donald Trump will go away. Maybe he’ll go to jail. Maybe he will die” (former Biden press secretary and current MSNBC misinformer Jen Psaki)
