Allow me to make an audacious suggestion. Albeit one that's a bit tardy.

Reagan will forever be hated by the left because he was such a success
The mythology surrounding Reagan's failed presidency is so entrenched in conservative lore there is no room for a truthful discussion.

Read the book, challenge your misguided beliefs.
 
Did he?

I never saw that

But in soft on crime San Francisco no-bail is very common
The article states what Dave said he was doing at the Pelosi home.

I was there

I dont need a Reagan hater to tell me what to think
 
So how many of the 24 perpetrators of the 31 targeted political murders or attempted murders since 2018 were from the Left? Let’s count them.


Politics of the villains

In 2018, Cesar Altieri Sayoc was sentenced to 20 years prison for sending pipe bombs to nine prominent Democrats, including Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden and Maxine Waters. Sayoc was a registered Republican.

In 2020, 13 men attempted to punish Michigan’s Democrat Governor Gretchen Whitmer for enforcing Covid lockdown measures. All were far right extremists.

Roy Den Hollander murdered human rights lawyer Marc Angelucci in July 2020. He then tried to kill district judge Esther Salas, but succeeded instead in murdering her son and seriously wounding her husband. Hollander was a far right Trump supporter.

Quintez Brown attempted to kill Democratic Mayor of Louisville, Kentucky, Craig Greenberg, in February 2022. Brown was motivated by Black nationalism, pan-Africanism and revolutionary socialism.

In October 2022 David DePape seriously injured Paul Pelosi with a hammer while seeking to kill House of Representatives Speaker, Nancy Pelosi. DePape is a far right Trump supporter.

In December 2022, Solomon Peña paid gunmen to attack the houses of Democrat state lawmakers in New Mexico. Peña is a registered Republican and a former candidate for state office.

Craig Robertson was shot and killed by FBI agents in August 2023 while being arrested for threats against President Joe Biden and others. Robertson was an army veteran with extreme right wing views.

Donald Trump himself was targeted at a July 2024 rally in Pennsylvania. The shooter Thomas Crooks killed one attendee and injured three others, including Trump, whose ear was cut by a flying fragment. Crooks was a registered Republican.


Another attempt on Trump’s life, thwarted before completion, was made by Trump voter Ryan Routh in September 2024. The trial is continuing.

In April 2025, Cody Balmer attempted to kill Pennsylvania’s Democratic Governor Josh Shapiro in an arson attack which caused extensive property damage but no injuries. Balmer was a Trump supporter at the time.

The Democrat Speaker of the Minnesota House of Representatives Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark Hortman were killed by avid Trump supporter and registered Republican Vance Boelter in June 2025.

Boelter then attempted to murder Minnesota Senator John Hoffman and succeeded in seriously injuring the senator and his wife.

Lastly, right wing influencer Charlie Kirk was shot last Wednesday by Tyler Robinson, a white student from a gun-loving Republican Mormon family. Robinson has no party links, but has reportedly embraced the extremism of right wing racist Nick Fuentes.
my score was 10 out of 13 as 10 false, 2 probable's and 1 great big WTF?!
 
trump was wrong for singling out the Left as being completely at fault for political violence. Does that help?
Deal with everything I said and I'll answer you.
 
“When you look at the agitators, you look at the scum that speaks so badly of our country, the American flag burnings all over the place, that’s the left, that’s not the right,” Trump said.
Says the guy who incited a terrorist attack on January 6.
 
Are you opposing the violent rhetoric that's been belching forth from the usual left-wing politicians and their trained seals?
ANY ONE Wiling to admit that the Constant willingness To ONLY support the Hate filled negative
Words pushed by ONE political party's. efforts to Rule us?

So what are we saying we give up? & are happy to have NO balance
No working together at all?
 
Simply put, it's a false equivalence. No major, national political figure from either party has ever acted the way trump does. By a factor of 10.

I disagree. In some ways they have not acted like trump, in other ways they have. You're trying to downplay the way the democratic party conducts itself.

Trust me, there is more to be concerned about than you realize. Not to be a broken record, but I listen to the lefts rhetoric often, I hear the rhetoric of the radio hosts, their words, their accusations, their hate. I hear the same rhetoric reflected in the people who call these shows, and how hateful and angry they are, and how they regurgitate the same talking points the host does. They listen to this stuff, some of them, for more than 6 hours a day, because some of them call in to both programs.

Then I come here to USMB and I hear the exact same talking points from members of the left here. Then Biden goes on TV and tells the world that maga is an extreme threat to the country.

I listen to the conservative side also and there is nothing like that going on, on the other shows.

The left, from what I hear with my own ears, has far surpassed the right when it comes to hateful rhetoric, and I offer the ability to prove it to anyone who wants to listen. I dont hide it, you have access to the same stuff I hear.

Siriusxm channel 125, starting at 10am EST to 1pm EST, then 1pm EST to 4pm EST.

Tune in during those times to hear what the real hardcore progressives are saying. Do this for a week, then listen to channel 126 pretty much any other time, then come back and let us know what you found. If you're honest, you'll see that the divisiveness on the left is MUCH more abundant.

Don't follow trump down this rabbit hole.

Trump ramps up attacks on left, Democrats after Kirk assassination​

In a four-minute video posted hours after Kirk was shot, Trump said years of attacks from the left comparing figures like Kirk to Nazis was “directly responsible for the terrorism that we’re seeing in our country today, and it must stop right now.”

When co-host Ainsley Earhardt asked Trump how the country can come together, noting there are “radicals” on both the right and the left, Trump defended those on the right as concerned about crime, while condemning those on the left as “vicious” and “horrible.”

On Sunday, Trump again insisted the problem “is on the left.”

“When you look at the agitators, you look at the scum that speaks so badly of our country, the American flag burnings all over the place, that’s the left, that’s not the right,” Trump said.

Trump calls his opponents 'scum' and lawbreakers in bellicose speech at Justice Department​

President Donald Trump on Friday walked into the Department of Justice and labeled his courtroom opponents “scum,” judges “corrupt” and the prosecutors who investigated him “deranged.”

With the DOJ logo directly behind him, Trump called his political opponents lawbreakers and said others should be sent to prison.


trump is no one whose vitriolic rhetoric you should want to copy. His approach shouldn't be anyone's example of how to behave in civil society. Parents don't raise their kids to be petulant and vindictive. Americans never embraced politicians who are, before now.

To the extent national leaders set the tone for the country, Don's tone needs to be rejected in the strongest possible way. Not copied.
Let me make a suggestion: KMA.
