Democrat PA Gov. Josh Shapiro Indignant Trump Called Some Leftists ‘Scum’ After Kirk Assassination
Breitbart ^ | 15 Sep 2025 | Hannah Knudsen

Pennsylvania’s Democrat Gov. Josh Shapiro is extremely aggrieved by President Donald Trump pointing to leftist violence and referring to individuals perpetrating it as “scum.”

Shapiro attempted to spread blame around by stating that “no one party is immune from political violence.” […]

“We are at an inflection point in America. Violence transcends party lines — and the way to address it and have true peaceful debate is for leaders to speak and act with moral clarity. That needs to start with the President,” he said, placing blame on Trump and completely ignoring the fact that Kirk did just that — engaged in peaceful debate with those who disagreed with him, and was in fact doing it at the moment an assassin fired the shot that ended Charlie Kirk’s life. …

Hey Josh. We know you want to keep you presidential hopes alive by looking tough and fighting Trump, but no matter how many “indignant” statements like this that you make, you still are Jewish. The Leftwing lunatic asylum part of the Dem base won’t forgive you for that.

Let’s see...

Did Shaprio speak out when we were called:

1. Bitter clingers?
2. TEA Baggers?
3. Deplorables?
4. Garbage?

Along with Nazis, Facists, white supremacists, misogynists, Racists, anti-vaxxers wanting to kill Grandma, anti-science, climate deniers...

“stating that ‘no one party is immune from political violence.’”

Why does nobody respond to these statements: “PROVE IT. GIVE ME FIVE NAMES.”?

The Dems are playing defense which means they are not scoring any points.

Josh, there’s not a damned thing you have done during your administration that smacks of moderation. You are as far left as they come and you will role play a moderate for a short time when you jump in the presidential race.

“E pluribus unum” doesn’t mean uniting good with evil.
Instead of pushing blind unity, we have to promote discernment between good and evil.

I agree with Shapiro. Some leftists are scum was derogatory.

Trump really screwed up this time. He should have said all leftists are scum.

If people being insulted bothers him more than people being murdered, I don’t know what to say.

Josh, give up the attempt at triangulation.
You are never going to be President.

Some leftist nut firebombed the governor’s mansion with the governor and his family home inside.

One might like to think he’d figure things out.
