Actually, only some of the receipts since there are so many.
The Trump campaign has said the unsayable out loud: Democrats and the mainstream media have been working overtime to demonize Trump, and the inevitable result is that the more unhinged among them are being inspired to violence.
I've already written a couple of posts about the Democrats' incitement to violence, including instances above and beyond those cited by Trump. Conversely, Trump has listed a bunch that I haven't mentioned.
So let me reproduce his press release here:
Yesterday, President Donald J. Trump was the target of a second assassination attempt in as many months.
Thankfully, the would-be assassin was stopped by the heroic action of law enforcement — but make no mistake, this psycho was egged on by the rhetoric and lies that have flowed from Kamala Harris, Democrats, and their Fake News allies for years.
Democrats used increasingly incendiary rhetoric against President Trump in the days, weeks, and months leading up to the two assassination attempts:
Kamala Harris — repeatedly: "Trump is a threat to our democracy and fundamental freedoms."
Kamala Harris: "It's on us to recognize the threat [Trump] poses."
Kamala Harris: "Does one of us have to come out alive? Ha ha ha ha!"
Joe Biden: "It's time to put Trump in a bullseye."
Joe Biden: "I mean this from the bottom of my heart: Trump is a threat to this nation."
Joe Biden: "There is one existential threat: it's Donald Trump."
Joe Biden: "Trump is a genuine threat to this nation ... He's literally a threat to everything America stands for."
Joe Biden: "Trump and MAGA Republicans are a threat to the very soul of this country."
Joe Biden: "Trump and the MAGA Republicans represent an extremism that threatens the very foundations of our republic ... and that is a threat to this country."
Tim Walz: "Are [Republicans] a threat to democracy? Yes. ... Are they going to put peoples' lives in danger? Yes." Gwen Walz: "Buh-bye, Donald Trump."
Rep. Nancy Pelosi: "[Trump] is a threat to our democracy of the kind that we have not seen."
Rep. Jasmine Crockett: "MAGA in general — they are threats to us domestically."
Rep. Dan Goldman: "He is destructive to our democracy and ... he has to be eliminated."
Disgraced Harris staffer TJ Ducklo: "Trump is an existential, urgent threat to our democracy."
Top Harris surrogate Liz Cheney: "Trump presents a fundamental threat to the republic and we are seeing it on a daily basis."
Rep. Steve Cohen: "Trump is an enemy of the United States."
Rep. Maxine Waters: "Are [Trump supporters] preparing a civil war against us?"
Rep. Maxine Waters: "I want to know about all of those right-wing organizations that [Trump] is connected with who are training up in the hills somewhere."
Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz: Trump is an "existential threat to our democracy."
Rep. Adam Schiff: Trump is the "gravest threat to our democracy."
Rep. Gregory Meeks: "Trump cannot be president again. He's an existential threat to democracy." Rep. Dan Goldman: "Trump remains the greatest threat to our democracy."
Rep. Jake Auchincloss: "What unifies us as a party is knowing that Donald Trump is an existential threat to Democracy."
Rep. Abigail Spanberger: "Trump is a threat to our democracy … the threats to our democratic republic are real."
Rep. Annie Kuster: "Trump and his extreme right-wing followers pose an existential threat to our democracy." Rep. Becca Balint: "We cannot underestimate the threat [Trump] poses to American democracy."
Rep. Jason Crow: "Trump is an extreme danger to our democracy."
Rep. Raul Grijalva: "Trump is an existential threat to American democracy."
Sen. Michael Bennet: Trump is "a threat to our democracy."
Rep. Stacey Plaskett: Trump "needs to be shot."
Rep. Steven Horsford: "Trump Republicans are a dangerous threat to our state."
Rep. Gabe Vasquez: "Remove the national threat from office."
Rep. Mike Levin: "Donald Trump is a threat to our nation, our freedom, and our democracy."
Rep. Eric Sorensen: "He is the greatest threat to law and order we have in our country."
Rep. Greg Landsman: "The threat is not over."
Rep. Pat Ryan: "Trump is an existential threat to American democracy."
Rick Wilson, The Lincoln Project: "They're still going to have to go out and put a bullet in Donald Trump."
Former Harris-Biden staffer Kate Bedingfield: Democrats should "turn their fire on Donald Trump."
That doesn't even include the dangerous rhetoric against President Trump spewed by deranged Democrats during the 2016 and 2020 elections, the impeachment hoaxes, and the Summer of Love.
Meanwhile, the deplorable commentary from Democrats and the Fake News in the aftermath of the latest assassination attempt has been even worse:
Rep. Hakeem Jeffries: "We must stop [Trump]."
Rachel Vindman, wife of disgraced impeachment hoax 'witness': "No ears were harmed. Carry on with your Sunday afternoon."
Rep. Mikie Sherrill: "This really seems to be the confluence of two very bad things going on in the Republican Party ... the attempts to divide, to enrage the population."
State Rep. Steven Woodrow (D-CO): "The last thing America needed was sympathy for the devil but here we are."
Lester Holt, NBC Nightly News: "Today's apparent assassination attempt comes amid increasingly fierce rhetoric on the campaign trail. Mr. Trump, his running mate JD Vance, continue to make baseless claims..."
Alex Witt, MSNBC: "Do you expect there to be calls from within the Trump campaign to [tone it down]?"
Phil Bump, The Washington Post: "Another chance for Trump to frame Democrats as dangerous has emerged."
Bill Kristol, The Bulwark: "Vance ... incite[s] potential violence with lies."
Ron Filipkowski, liberal commentator: "Was the golf course guy with the gun a migrant?"
David Frum, The Atlantic: "Trump and his running mate have spent the past week successfully inciting violence ... today they want to present themselves as near-victims of violence."
Jonathan Chait, New York Magazine: "Trump is a threat to democracy, and saying so is not incitement."
The Cincinnati Enquirer: "The former president, Donald Trump, brings a lot of this stuff on himself."
USA TODAY: "Hope in America."
NBC News: "Golf course incident."
Bloomberg: Trump "seizing on assassination attempt."
Democrats and the Fake News must immediately cease their inflammatory, violent rhetoric against President Trump — which was mimicked by yesterday's would-be asssassin.
President Trump said it best: "Because of this Communist Left Rhetoric, the bullets are flying, and it will only get worse!"
Yesterday Twitter/X was awash in ridiculous posts, ranging from "it was a hoax" to "it's all Trump's fault." And it wasn't just left-wing wackos of the harridans of The View or the jerks on MSNBC. In newspapers across the country, pundits intoned in the fake "not in anger but in sorrow" tones of hypocrites that Donald Trump inspired people to shoot at him.
If only Trump had the decency to die, they wouldn't have to keep trying to kill him.
My favorite in that Overton mashup was Rick Wilson of The Lincoln Project fame, who hates Donald Trump because he violates democratic norms, calling for a bullet to be put into Trump's head.
Nice. Very respectful of American norms, Rick. Or how about this from yesterday?
I do think that many of these people are serious when they complain about Trump's rhetoric and totally unaware that they are the worst people in the world. They truly believe they are saving democracy.
Not all of them, of course. Many of them are just evil people, like Adam Schiff and Dan Goldman. I wonder what they would say if Republicans started calling for their "elimination?"
I don't want to find out. I just want them voted out of office and covered in the shame they so richly deserve.
As some people have pointed out, Donald Trump has now survived more assassination attempts this election cycle than Kamala Harris has given one-on-one press interviews.
This is the Democrats' vision of how "democracy" is supposed to work.
Lester Holt sticks out.
His comment exposes the plot.
It confirms media participation.

The Democrat Party Organized Crime Syndicate will say and do anything to continue their criminal activities.
“Because of this Communist Left Rhetoric, the bullets are flying, and it will only get worse!”
Indeed he won’t end up the only target we will.
Rep. Maxine Waters: “Are [Trump supporters] preparing a civil war against us?”
Ha, Some have been ready since the pos Bammy.
Yep Holt gave up the game when he said that the Haitians eating cats meme set off violence. He proved that the specter of 20k Haitians dumped in Springfield meme is damaging Democrats bad. Any town is a potential victim of open borders.
Questioning what Democrats say in the campaign is hate speech. You could get assassinated for it. Same with questioning election results. That is also hate speech.
The latest wannabe assassin has also given more press interviews than Kamala Harris!
I was visiting my mom when this story broke. I told her the democrats and mainstream media are partially responsible for this with all their hate speech and rhetoric.
The Dems have crossed the line and went from policy and idea disagreements to personal attacks with vicious lies smearing the character of each and every Republican that gets in their way of power. They don’t have to do the “dirty work”. Just incite the lunatics on their side and the disposable brainwashed loonies will do their dirty work for them.
All this started with BHO.
Did I ever tell you a story about some characters I knew of during the Carter administration?
Trump IS a threat against the “democracy” that the demonrats want. That “democracy” isn’t the democracy that some of the people want. The democracy that the demonrats want is communism. Yes, Trump is a threat against communism, and the freedom the demonrats seek to impose it on us.
Lots of people don’t understand the deceptive speech. It’s doublespeak.
We don’t have a democracy, but a constitutional republic. But the educational system has dumbded-own enough people and ‘socialized’ them enough so as to brainwash them.
<>We . . . have . . . a constitutional republic.<>
You funny.
