Trump Team brings receipts with LONG list of incendiary Dem rhetoric preceding assassination attempts

Narrative crafting came back to bite Democrat politicians and their talking head teammates as the former president’s campaign set fire to their moral high ground with “incendiary rhetoric” receipts.

If it weren’t bad enough that the left had opted against “lowering the temperature” after the first time former President Donald Trump had a brush with death, all pretense appeared to have been abandoned following Sunday’s second assassination attempt.

As the GOP leader himself faulted President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris for the rhetoric that motivated would-be assassins, his campaign went on to provide over 50 examples in a thread that asserted, “MAKE NO MISTAKE: The would-be assassin of President Trump was egged on by the incendiary rhetoric and lies that have flowed from Kamala Harris, Democrats, and their Fake News allies for years.”

Before turning to Biden’s take that it was “time to put Trump in a bullseye” and how the incumbent told donors at a fundraiser “There is one existential threat: it’s Donald Trump,” the frequent instances of Harris asserting, “Trump is a threat to our democracy and fundamental freedoms,” were highlighted.

“Does one of us have to come out alive?” she joked to applause during an appearance on “Ellen” where she was presented with a hypothetical of being trapped in an elevator with “either President Trump, Mike Pence or Jeff Sessions.”

“Trump and the MAGA Republicans represent an extremism that threatens the very foundations of our republic … and that is a threat to this country,” Biden said during his infamous Independence Hall address.

During an appearance on MSNBC, California Rep. Maxine Waters (D) wondered if Trump supporters were “preparing a civil war against us?” and in May of this year she asserted to host Jonathan Capehart that she was going to ask the Justice Department about what they were doing “about all of those right-wing organizations that [Trump’s] connected with, who are training up in the hills somewhere and targeting, uh, you know, what communities they are going to attack.”

Those were only the tip of the iceberg as the thread went on to include congressional peers: Arizona Rep. Raul Grijalva; California Reps. Nancy Pelosi, Adam Schiff and Mike Levin; Colorado Rep. Jason Crow; Florida Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz; Illinois Rep. Eric Sorensen; Massachusetts Rep. Jake Auchincloss; Nevada Rep. Steven Horsford; New Hampshire Rep. Anne Kuster; New Mexico Rep. Gabe Vasquez; New York Reps. Dan Goldman, Pat Ryan, and Gregory Meeks; Ohio Rep. Greg Landsman; Tennessee Rep. Steve Cohen; Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett; Vermont Rep. Becca Balint; Virginia Rep. Abigail Spanberger and Virgin Island Delegate Stacey Plaskett.

While Harris’ running mate Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and his wife Gwen Walz were cited among the list of examples, the campaign also looked at remarks that had happened since Sunday with a focus on coverage from corporate media where Trump was accused of bringing “this stuff on himself” while NBC Nightly News’s Lester Holt chided the president and his running mate, Ohio Sen. J.D. Vance, for their “baseless claims” amid “increasingly fierce rhetoric.”

Of course, the ever-growing list failed to include some prominent new editions as former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton asserted “His demagoguery, his danger to our country and the world” made Trump “dangerous” and Harris went as far as to blame the death of a Georgia woman on the GOP leader’s pro-life positions.
