Fox News host Sean Hannity blamed liberal politicians for the actions of two would-be assassins of former President Donald Trump and falsely claimed they were Democrats.
But isn’t that the most honest answer. Some form of mania. The GOP want us to live in a world where only democrats can ignite extremist violent outbursts. All while courting extremists. If the democrats rhetoric makes people violent then surely the GOPs rhetoric will do the same?
I dunno. I’m trying to apply logic to an illogical argument. So much of the time we should just shut these people off and work are hardest to deplatform them rather then just fact checking. It’s a type of pollution, which is fine in small doses, but it’s destroying the public square. That and all the shameless advertisments.
Do we even know he wanted to hurt Trump in the first place? He made no attempt at attacking him, he was just hiding with a weapon. Which might have been in order to protect Trump from assassins as far as we know. Did anyone ask?
Seems like we all went to our default internet sleuthing because the gunman is always dead. Maybe, like, someone could check in on him. I’m pretty sure it’s legal and such. Might need like permission but the dude still has rights until his trails complete.
Like, isn’t he alive? Can’t someone ask him what his motives were?
You assume the FBI, secret service, and every other 3 letter agency who can get access to his cell aren’t doing exactly that?
Given his biography, I would expect a string of conspiracy laden answers and generally incoherent explanations, though.
