      Especially the right. If this kid had a little more left in him they’d never stop. Introspection about the normalization of political violence among conservatives is not something they’re interested in.

        I mean, they’re not going to stop regardless – they’ll be blatantly lying about the assassination’s motivations to smear the left until the election and beyond. Still, from an election strategy point of view, that’s definitely better than them being able to make “both sides” claims that are true.
