Democrats’ rhetoric stoking fear and hatred against former President Donald Trump — including repeated comparisons to Adolf Hitler — is coming into a harsh new light following the assassination attempt against him on Saturday.

"Unreal.
"There, in the flesh, in the middle of a standard Washington event — the annual White House Correspondents Association Dinner (WHCA) — was what was intended to be a mass murder of U.S. government officials. The Washington Hilton ballroom held not only the president and vice president of the United States but dozens of Cabinet members and members of Congress, not to mention hundreds of journalists.

"It was by the grace of a higher power that the sole casualty was a mild chest wound to a Secret Service officer who was, thankfully, wearing a bulletproof vest. The immediate audience of Washington politicians and journalists, in chaos, jumped out of chairs, hid under tables, and then raced away.
"This was the third attempt on the life of President Trump. First, of course, was the shooting at a rally in Butler, Penn. Next was a foiled attempt at the Trump golf course. Now comes this attack at the WHCA dinner, which, as noted, is a standard annual glitzy black tie of Washington power brokers in an event held annually in Washington.
"The would-be murderer, captured unharmed, was revealed to be 31-year-old Cole Tomas Allen of Torrance, California. USA Today reported this of the shooter:
"Allen listed his employment as a teacher in a $25 donation to Kamala Harris in 2024. He is registered to vote in California as “no party preference.”"His LinkedIn profile indicated he’s been a part-time teacher at C2 Education in Torrance, California. C2 is a national tutoring and college counseling provider."Allen posted on LinkedIn he received his bachelor of science degree in mechanical engineering from the California Institute of Technology in 2017 and his master’s degree in computer science from California State University, Dominguez Hills in 2025. Kathy Svitil, a spokesperson for the California Institute of Technology, confirmed a record of an undergraduate student by the name of Cole Allen who graduated in 2017, but declined to release more information.
"Question? How in the world does somebody get to the point that something like this happens in the first place?
"And the answer, sad as it is, comes that there are too many people on the American left and inside the media and the Democrat Party (but I repeat myself) that have made hatred of President Trump their MO — method of operation. Cheered on by the reality that the media is awash in reports of Democrats — not all but many — verbally smearing the president of the United States with all kinds of disparaging and violence-inviting language." . . .
