Seriously? Trump has called political opponents vermin, communists, "the enemy within" (and think about that one), terrible people, evil. He told supporters repeatedly in the campaign that they "wouldn't have a country anymore" if Dems won.

The lack of self-awareness on the side of the right is actually alarming. It seems delusional.

:Mr. Trump framed the nation’s seemingly intensifying tide of political violence as something exclusively committed by the left against the right.

He listed such episodes, which include two attempts on his own life, without mentioning the assassination of a Democratic state legislator and her husband in June, the arson attack on the residence of Gov. Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania, a Democrat, nor the fact that his own supporters ransacked the Capitol and beat police officers on Jan. 6, 2021, in an effort to overturn the 2020 election result in Mr. Trump’s favor.

That doesn't equate to calls for violence against them. Vilifying your opposition is normal and both sides do it. But the Left calls for direct violence regularly. "Get in their face!" (Maxine Waters) for example.

Okay, you have one. Fine.

I responded and you have no rebuttal so you demand an end to the debate. How usual.

"Get in their face!" isn't a call for violence. Neither is "get out in the streets" or most of what is said in that video.

If you're not paying attention, MANY on the right are now saying the same thing. We have heard that this is now a "war" from prominent voices.

I'm tired of this. No side has the high ground on this topic, and I'm tired of pretending that one side does.

President Trump said on Friday that the “radical left” was responsible for much of the political violence in the country, and appeared to excuse violence on the right by saying that it was driven by people who “don’t want to see crime.”


“The radicals on the left are the problem, and they’re vicious and they’re horrible and they’re politically savvy.”

You need to do some reading, It isn't JUST the left but the right is doing it too.

Yes, they are. Those are confrontational both in a physical and verbal manner.
