The Trump shooting is a reminder: we live in a grim new era of political violence | Moira Donegan

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

80% : Trump's enthusiasm for a brutish and at times outright violent politics of domination appears to be infectious, and has spawned imitators throughout the Republican party: in 2018, then representative Greg Gianforte, of Montana, was charged with assault in the midst of his congressional reelection campaign after body-slamming a reporter, a move that Trump praised.
47% : Trump said.
43% : After Trump ducked to avoid the bullets, he was immediately surrounded by Secret Service agents, who closely surrounded him as a human shield.
32% : But he rose from the stage, apparently in defiance of their wishes, to raise a fist in the air and yell "Fight!", Trump was defiant, and calling for revenge.
25% : There is no sign that Trump or his surrogates will disavow this, or make any effort to call it off.
3% : "The central premise of the Biden campaign is that President Donald Trump is an authoritarian fascist who must be stopped at all costs," tweeted JD Vance, an Ohio senator and Trump's most sycophantic vice-presidential hopeful.
