For years, Democrats have relentlessly attacked Donald Trump and his supporters, spewing dangerous rhetoric that has escalated into real-world violence. They’ve labeled him a “threat to democracy” and compared him to dictators like Hitler and Mussolini. But these radical comments are not just hyperbole—they’re fanning the flames of hate.
From media outlets to high-ranking politicians, the left’s obsession with demonizing Trump has created a toxic environment where even assassination attempts are becoming disturbingly frequent. Yet, they refuse to take any responsibility for the violence their words are inspiring.
The language coming from Democrats is not just divisive. It’s reckless. They’ve called Trump’s supporters deplorables, accused them of being extremists, and spread the dangerous narrative that violence might be necessary to stop Trump’s return to power. A June poll from the University of Chicago found that 26 million U.S. adults believe that using force to prevent Trump from getting reelected is justified.
This is what happens when you constantly vilify political opponents—people start to believe that any means are necessary to stop them. The left’s radical rhetoric is driving this violence, and it’s time they are held accountable for the consequences of their words.
From Daily Caller:
“The View” co-host Whoopi Goldberg claimed on Tuesday that dangerous rhetoric is only a problem on the political right following the second assassination attempt on Republican nominee Donald Trump…“And also, let’s stop this thing. You know, let’s stop this both sides stuff,” Goldberg said. “Because it’s not correct. It is not both sides, it is one clear side, and you can point to many, many reports. You can point to all kinds of stuff that’s been reported. You guys have to pull it back. This is not us or them, this is you got to stop doing what you’re doing, J.D. Vance and what you’re doing, Mr. Trump, because you are not helping the situation.”
Incredibly, some Democrats and their media allies, like the hosts of The View, have the audacity to claim that dangerous political rhetoric only exists on the right. Whoopi Goldberg, known for her long history of making idiotic comments, once again displayed her ignorance this week.
After the second assassination attempt on Donald Trump, Goldberg insisted that the political right is solely responsible for inciting violence. “It is not both sides,” she said, refusing to acknowledge the role Democrats and the media play in stoking hatred toward Trump.
Goldberg’s remarks came just days after the Secret Service arrested Ryan Wesley Routh, a 58-year-old man who allegedly pointed an AK-47-style weapon at Trump at his golf club in West Palm Beach, Florida. This was the second assassination attempt in just a few months.
And yet, Goldberg, in her infinite wisdom, argues that the problem of dangerous rhetoric doesn’t apply to her side. It’s a ridiculous claim, but typical of the left’s complete lack of self-awareness.
Sunny Hostin, another co-host on The View, chimed in by citing a poll that found 26 million Americans support the use of force to stop Trump. Instead of reflecting on what has driven so many people to such a dangerous mindset, Hostin simply brushed it off, calling the statistic “despicable.”
Well, yes, it is despicable, but it’s also the direct result of years of Democrats painting Trump as an existential threat to the country. If you tell people for years that Trump is Hitler, what do you expect?
The reality is that the violence and threats against Trump are part of a growing trend of political violence, and it’s not just coming from the right. Just in July, at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, Trump was shot at by 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks, who fired eight rounds into the crowd, killing a former fire chief.
This isn’t some isolated incident; it’s part of a larger pattern of left-wing extremism that the media refuses to acknowledge.
Yet, somehow, the media and Democrats continue to push the narrative that Trump is the dangerous one. People like former Senator Claire McCaskill have even gone so far as to claim that Trump is “more dangerous” than Hitler.
These comments are not only absurd, but they’re also fueling the exact kind of violence they claim to oppose. When prominent figures in the media and politics compare Trump to genocidal dictators, they are directly encouraging violence against him and his supporters.
It’s time for Democrats and their media allies to stop pretending they have the moral high ground. Their rhetoric is dangerous, and it’s leading to violence. Whether it’s Whoopi Goldberg’s ignorant claims or the insane comparisons of Trump to Hitler, the left needs to take a hard look in the mirror. The violence against Trump and his supporters won’t stop until they stop demonizing half the country.
Key Takeaways:
- Democrats’ dangerous rhetoric against Donald Trump and his supporters has fueled violence, including assassination attempts, with their repeated claims that Trump is a “threat to democracy.”
- Whoopi Goldberg and other hosts of The View downplayed the left’s role in stoking political violence, falsely claiming that such rhetoric only comes from the right, despite recent assassination attempts against Trump.
- Liberal media figures and politicians have made extreme comparisons of Trump to Hitler and Mussolini, further encouraging hostility, while refusing to take responsibility for the consequences of their words.
