I couldn’t get through this article, and I’ve read some crazy stuff. You must read both sides, even when your opposition has become unspooled. But this is downright low for Politico to publish this after an assassination attempt. The publication posted that Trump is like Mussolini in using such attacks for political gain:

It’s never us that’s the problem. It’s astounding that after the Trump assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania on July 13, there was a rush from liberals, who have been fanning the flames for years, that we needed to tone down the rhetoric.

If they’re going to post stuff like this, it’s entirely within our right to blame Democrats, the media, and Joe Biden for trying to kill Trump. They’ve said for years that the former president is a threat to the country, a fascist, and it’s either Biden (now Kamala) or death.

I wouldn’t be surprised if this attempt to kill Trump doesn’t go all the way back to Hillary.

The Pollutico "writer" is Ruth Ben-Ghiat.

She's a REAL nutter.
