Democrats lit the 'assassination culture' fuse -- now their silence...

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

53% : I saw my first inkling of this trend on my Facebook feed soon after November's election -- political memes and posts with increasingly savage imagery and language.
51% : Voters chose Trump, very recently and very specifically, to shake Washington up.
44% : In Holland, Mich., Redmond, Ore., and elsewhere, grinning marchers wore shirts and carried placards emblazoned with the number "8647," pairing the old slang term for murder with a 47 for Trump.
44% : One of these was a photoshop of Melania Trump cozying up to Mangione, murmuring, "I was wondering if you could do me a little favor." Fantasizing about killing Trump, just after two attempts were made on his life, is perfectly acceptable on the platform that once banned people for questioning whether masking was effective against COVID.
42% : A new report from the Network Contagion Research Institute found that more than half of left-leaning Americans say political violence is "acceptable" -- with 55% of them seeing "some justification" for assassinating Trump.
29% : President Trump riles up the left like few can.
25% : It's OK to protest, to loudly oppose the changes Trump was elected to make.
21% : He carried a sign calling for Trump to be "deposed" -- that is, violently overthrown.
