The big one you left out, that you people shot "President X" in the head, and then tried to do it again 2 weeks later.
Are you going to claim that isn't a factor?
Yup, I'm going to go there. I'm going to use the "I" word.

The "Saturday Night Massacre" refers to President Richard Nixon's firing of Watergate Special Prosecutor Archibald Cox on October 20, 1973. This event triggered a constitutional crisis and public outrage because it was viewed as a blatant attempt to obstruct the ongoing Watergate investigation.
The difference being trump fired a US Attorney because he did not find evidence sufficient to charge one of trump's enemies. Then he pressured the AG to bring charges against a number of perceived enemies, violating the tradition of the DoJ's independence from the executive on prosecutorial matters.

It isn't a factor. How does Dotard being shot at justify the actions he took relative to prosecuting his perceived enemies?The big one you left out, that you people shot "President X" in the head, and then tried to do it again 2 weeks later.

I think the fact that the left and the DemoKKKrat party called for President Trump's assassination at least 100 times publicly, then two people tried to do it, is enough reason for him to seek revenge.
