La hipócrita cruzada de Trump contra la retórica violenta y la creciente realidad de un país dividido
Trump and the White House blamed Democrats’ rhetoric after the shooting, even as polls show most Americans see the right as more violent.
- On Monday, President Donald Trump and the White House responded to the weekend shooting at the White House Correspondents' Dinner by blaming Democrats, decrying "supposedly beyond-the-pale rhetoric" and labeling them a "cult of hatred."
- Republicans are largely repeating a blame game they waged after Charlie Kirk's assassination last year, a strategy that has yet to appear effective in reducing political tensions.
- Remarkably, majorities of both sides agreed that rhetoric was more to blame for Kirk's assassination: 54% of Democrats and 73% of Republicans, per NBC News polling showing rhetoric blame rose to 61% last year.
- White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said Monday that political violence stems from "a systemic demonization of Trump" by media and Democrats, claiming this rhetoric directed at the president for 11 years has legitimized such violence.
- The alleged shooter, Cole Tomas Allen, reportedly left social media posts comparing Trump to Adolf Hitler, though officials cautioned that early-stage assessments of perpetrator motivations remain speculative.
