Charlie Kirk’s assassination is the result of a decade of anti-Trump rhetoric from the left

They regularly call the President (and by extension, all of us) Nazi, fascist, and existential threat, knowing full well that there are vulnerable people like Tyler Robinson out there -- then they pretend to be upset at the inevitable result of their words.

[Larry Lucido]

Well, they were quick to blame Gabby Gifford’s shooting on Sarah Palin’s campaign advertisements.

Exactly!

Every conservative speaker should be surrounded by bullet proof glass.
Let’s not be fools like lambs surrounded by a pack of wolves.
Even my cat can figure this om out. Are we really this stupid?

It isn’t just Trump. Remember when Bush was president, how the left reacted. It was pretty much the same. Ditto Reagan. The left is consumed by hate and power.

[Red6]

To a great extent, yes.

They created a “climate.”

Those not to bright or cynical about what our media says (they are full of $!@# quite often) get stirred up.

People are herd animals and emotional. Emotions win over reason most of the time.

Most people are reasonable as individuals, but collectively, people get stupid.

[TigersEye]

It goes back further than that. They said the same things about Bush and everyone who supported him then. Heck they did it with Nixon too.

The Party of Slavery has been a blight on this country for a long time.

TPUSA was formed years before Trump even ran for President the first time.

It’s the principles that TPUSA and Kirk endorsed that the left hated. The advent of Trump may have amplified their hatred, but it would have been there if Trump had never come along.

What gets me is the slack jawed American people are really stupid and also ignorant (watch Jesse Watters Primetime where Johnny asks “Who did the colonists in the American Revolution fight against?” Germany. Russia. China. “What king was in charge when the colonists fought his soldiers?” King Charles. King Tut.

BUT when it’s propaganda against Trump or about climate change they memorize every word and spout it back. “Democracy” “Existential threat.” “He’s the new Hitler.”

[Jamestown1630]

I’m sure they spotlight the most stupid responses in those street or beach segments.

[TBP]

When Democrats call him “an existential threat” or “literally Hitler,” they know exactly what they’re doing. They know what the result will be. So they do it more.

[frank ballenger]

On the contrary, I think they are the smartest ones found. (kidding)

Mr. Kroger, 2 C’s 2 D’s and an F. That’s a 1.2 grade average. Congratulations, Kroger, you’re at the top of the Delta pledge class.

Exactly. They think “wow, I’m really admirable. I’m going to kill a fascist. I feel so proud.”

Like the real armed forces of the US and Britain in WWII.

Norman Mailer was asked if he killed someone in WWII. In one of the battles he said a group of us were firing toward the Japanese soldiers in bushes ahead of us who were firing at us. After the cleanup we found several of the Japanese soldiers were dead. I have no way of knowing if my shots or the other guys’ killed them.

Anybody associated with President Trump has a target on their back.

[GOPJ]

There are not two sides contributing to the horror and equally responsible for it. The single truth is that we are witnessing the inevitable result of a decade of Trump Derangement Syndrome.

Kirk’s death is another piece of poisoned fruit growing out of the far left’s hysteria and its fetish-like obsession about killing the president.

Our MSM has blood on their hands and hate in their hearts. This piece is correct - and we can watch the Sunday Elite "News" shows push this 'it's all equal' crap tomorrow...

Funny movie,

[TBP]

There are apparently posters all over Bluesky threatening President Trump, Elon Musk, and Ben Shapiro. I wondered who The Party of Decency and Tolerance target next.

That doesn't surprise me. They hate everyone, including themselves.
