Leftist hate rules social media after Trump assassination attempt
Not moments after someone tried to assassinate Donald Trump, the trending topic on X was, disgustingly, “they missed” and “how did they miss.”
Just how depraved do you have to be to sink that low?
There have been plenty of examples of division in our history, and no, you don’t need to go all the way back to the Civil War to find them — many Americans are still around who personally witnessed the political turmoil and political killings of the 1960s.

But today feels so uncivilized, so sad.
That someone would decide that they had to kill a former and perhaps future president is bad enough, but to have a hoard of online posters cheering them on?
The media likes to preach at us, saying we should have a “conversation” about radicalism. Will they talk about this?

There is hatred that has been carefully nourished, and it is out of control. It is not the story of one side, but only one side gets covered by the press.
“Look, there’s no place in America for this kind of violence. It’s sick. It’s sick,” President Biden said in a bloodless statement. “It’s one of the reasons why we have to unite this country. We cannot allow for this to be happening. We cannot be like this. We cannot condone this.”
“Cannot condone.” How about what are you going to do to stop it?
Denounce the violence, yes. But condemn the social media vultures as well, who are coarsening our nation and putting us into a spiral to God knows where.
