Seems like they only have a problem when it’s their boy getting violence.

    Time for Conservatives to play the reverse-uno victim card again. After stoking the flames of political violence for literally YEARS, they suddenly act shocked and horrified when political violence happens… but only because it was directed at their own. It’s not supposed to work like that, it’s supposed to be dumb liberals getting assaulted/killed without repercussions. Trump should’ve already been tried as a traitor and given the necessary punishment for that. That it took this long for something like this to happen is kind of mind-blowing. MAGA folks have already made assassination attempts on multiple other officials prior to this, including his former vice president.

      Thousands of them marched on Capitol Hill at Trump’s prompting, tried to lynch the vice president, tried to kill Congress, and several people died as a result. They didn’t have any problems with violence on that day, or any day following, until yesterday.
