As Twitchy readers know, the leftist media has been working overtime to blame Trump for getting shot at ... again. Apparently, they believe his 'rhetoric' is to blame for the nutjobs trying to kill him.
Yeah, they suck. Both the media and the nutjobs.
And the suckiest of all has been MSNBC - we know, you're shocked. Welp, after getting dragged and called out for nearly 24 hours straight, MSNBC'r Elise Jordan tried to make excuses for what she said and sort of walked it back.
Sort of but not really.
What I actually said yesterday when decrying political extremism and violence, (apparently controversial in the age of the ❄️): “It’s just something that Democrats and Republicans have to be very cognizant about: What can we all do to take the temperature down?”

She wants BOTH sides to tone down the rhetoric.
Funny, right? We laughed.

Not even a little bit.
Democrats can stop being insanely deranged.

From the summer 2020 riots to political assassination attempts on both former presidents and Supreme Court justices to Antifa roaming streets in cities in the Pacific Northwest to the vile rise of anti-Semitic attacks in this country, the bulk of the violence is coming from…

Sounds like a Democrat problem to us.
Democrats can STOP calling for political violence against their opponents. It’s not 2-sided. pic.twitter.com/DZnuPKyqtJ

Oof.
Are Democrats being arrested en masse? Are they being ☠️ protesting?

Are Democrats being shot at? pic.twitter.com/JZ8ACRQTGG
Awww yes. Remember when Rick Wilson said someone would have to put a bullet in Trump? Funny how the media never really seems to bring that up, even after two different gunman have tried to kill Trump by ironically putting a bullet in him.
Friendly reminder of what’s at stake this year: progressives will ALWAYS justify and even encourage violence when their power is threatened. This is always true as it is ingrained in their dogma.

It's what socialists do.
Hey Elsie who's the ones in this political discourse being sh0t and sh0t at. It damn sure isn't your side. So excuse me if your calls to tone down rhetoric fall flat.

Try again.
If you haven’t figured out something so blindingly obvious by now, then you’re not really as bright as you make yourself out to be.

She works for MSNBC.
In other words, duh.
