That was the year George Wallace was wounded as well.
*****************
Wallace was shot in 1972.
When it comes to violence against Presidents and congress people since 1960, the one common strain is that the attempted assassin was either a left wing nutjob or the target was a Republican and , in most cases, both. Dem President JFK killed by communist Oswald, Republican President Ford’s two attempted assassins were a left wing nutjob and anarchist Squeaky Fromme, Republican President Reagan shot by regular nutjob, Republican majority leader Scalise shot by left wing nut job, Democrat Congressperson Giffords shot by left wing nutjob, Republican President Trump shot by left wing nutjob donating to Progressive Act Blue and nominally registered as a Republican.
I heard their reports. Really disgusting! They were telling their on-site correspondents to be careful that the MAGA types didn’t attack them. That was the primary concern of Brennan. She attacked Republicans for their overheated, dangerous rhetoric and when Scaliese pointed out that Democrats were using threatening rhetoric against Trump, she cut him off and denied it.
He should have referred to Biden’s statement about putting Trump in the bullseye, but as is usual for Republicans, he pulled his punches and said nothing.
The liberal vs. conservative mindset right there. She sees the world through her politically correct, let's sing Kumbaya glasses from a safe place in liberaldom where her goal every morning is point out how evil and violent conservatives are.
The real world is different. In the real world, people who get hit, get up and they're mad. Fighting mad. Also in the real world, others see that which means every world leader watched President Trump get shot and come up fighting and said, "Ain't messin' with him. No way. No how."
Why are you posting this on every Trump thread?
Was RFK (in ‘68) the hands down favorite to win the Dem nomination and the election over Nixon until being assassinated. Did choosing to go with Humphrey instead seal the fate of the Dems losing that election? I was too young to be aware of the political winds blowing at the time....
These people have their heads up their asses. The MSM as attack dogs for the Democrats and the administrative state have been at 11 on the rhetoric scale for 8 years - from fake bought and paid for Dossiers to 51 professional liars saying the laptop was a Russian fake, two impeachments, 99 prosecutions, from Kathy Griffen to Robert Deniro rantings to Maxine Waters there is literally too much to list. They have demonized this man since he came down the escalator to announce his candidacy. They are the ones who are to blame for the deep division and rhetoric and over the top behavior that created the conditions where someone would do something like this. It is just so typical for them to turn and blame Republicans for the fires they have stoked for almost a decade.

Question: who put these Democraps up to facilitating a Trump assassination?
Cong Bennie Thompson
<>headed the infamous Jan. 6th Commission
<>crafted a bill to strip Trump of his Secret Service detail.
<>was a black separatist early on (his resume enhancer?)
Thompson aide and field director, tax paid Jacqueline Marsaw
on social media, wished Trump’s assassin had “better aim.”
Damn right we are angry that Trump was shot.
The democrat deep state is happy this morning...
In reading President Trump’s lips when he first got stood back up on the stage, I thought he said, “Fight, Fu.., Fight!!!”
