Don’t you love it when the conservatives blame the Dems for what the conservatives are doing themselves? It’s like narcissism’s victim-blaming 101: shifting accountability, gaslighting, and projection.
Pretty sure that’s literally one of Eco’s 14 characteristics of fascism. Publicly accusing the opposition of doing the exact (awful) thing they’re doing.
If I’m not mistaken, it was a US Libertarian who attempted the assassination. It’s analytically pointless to group them in with the Republicans, even if they’re both horrible. Infighting is serious business. [redacted: see my reply]

Source he was a libertarian?
US libertarians are republicans’ worst governing qualities on steroids, but they’re essentially republicans here despite the naming difference.

I recall seeing somewhere that his pops was a libertarian.
