WEBVTT - Ed Morrissey: America Has A Left Wing Violence Problem 0:00:01.320 --> 0:00:03.120 This is Ed Morrissey of hot air dot Com for 0:00:03.200 --> 0:00:06.360 town Hall. America has once again descended into an era 0:00:06.440 --> 0:00:10.280 of political violence, and once again the political violence originates 0:00:10.280 --> 0:00:13.360 from the American left. This weekend, the third assassin in 0:00:13.440 --> 0:00:16.120 less than two years attempted to kill Donald Trump. This 0:00:16.160 --> 0:00:19.480 would be assassin left behind a manifesto explaining his rationale. 0:00:19.720 --> 0:00:22.439 It echoes the left's resistance rhetoric used for the last 0:00:22.480 --> 0:00:25.480 eleven years. His argument could easily have been a monologue 0:00:25.480 --> 0:00:28.520 on late night television or on cable channels like MS now. 0:00:28.720 --> 0:00:31.240 The mainstream left and the media have demagogue Trump to 0:00:31.280 --> 0:00:34.000 the point where violent reaction is now the norm. This 0:00:34.080 --> 0:00:37.120 began from the riot in DC on Trump's first inauguration day, 0:00:37.280 --> 0:00:39.960 through the twenty twenty George Floyd riots, to the riots 0:00:39.960 --> 0:00:43.240 in Los Angeles and Minneapolis over immigration enforcement, to these 0:00:43.280 --> 0:00:46.840 assassination attempts. Despite efforts by the Southern Poverty Law Center 0:00:46.920 --> 0:00:50.600 and Joe Biden's DOJ to falsely depict conservatives as dangerous, 0:00:50.720 --> 0:00:53.920 the violent comes from one direction. The left and all 0:00:53.960 --> 0:00:58.120 who demagogue over a duly elected president's legitimacy share responsibility 0:00:58.160 --> 0:00:58.400 for it.
