Blame Left's Incendiary Rhetoric for Trump Assassination Attempts ( Victor Davis Hanson) . . ."That is, are we sending unambiguous messages to would-be assassins that a) lots of Trump-hating people would welcome an assassination attempt and canonize the wannabe assailant; b) it would not be that difficult to pull an assassination off, given security laxity and incompetence; and thus c) we will likely witness a series of such unhinged attempts?
