Rep. Mikie Sherrill (D-N.J.) tore into Republicans as many of them blame the Democrats’ rhetoric for the second assassination attempt on former President Trump.
Trump was the target of an apparent assassination attempt while he was golfing at his resort in Florida on Sunday. No one was hurt, but Trump has since blamed Democrat rhetoric for the second attempt on his life in just two months.
CNN’s Jim Acosta on Monday asked Sherrill Monday whether the protection around the former president needs to change in the wake of the latest incident. She suggested that the attempted assassination stemmed from the GOP’s rhetoric and the availability of assault rifles in the country.

specifically what “rhetoric” are they trying to blame this on, and specifically how is it worse than GOP’s rhetoric?
rhetorical question. i know there’s no valid answer that’s rooted in reality
"Your divisive rhetoric caused action from this domestic terrorist we’ve been radicalizing! It’s sneaky to make them go after us! They’re supposed to attack the groups we hate.
“Why can’t we cooperate on the real issues (immigrants stealing and eating cats)?”
It’s just Trump’s typical defense - accuse the other side of what you’re doing before they can, so when they say it, it’s at worst a “both sides” issue to the public.
not just trump… its the P in GOP… projection
Oh, you got them bad with the reality. Otherwise they’d have plenty of answers!
