'Martyr for truth.' Trump vows vengeance against 'radical Left' for Charlie Kirk killing

Trump, saying he was 'filled with grief and anger,' vowed in a taped address to 'find each and every one of those who contributed to this atrocity.'
www.usatoday.com

Nothing like the "Uniter in Chief" toning down the rhetoric by making threats of violence against political opposition. Nevermind the fact that we have no idea who committed the crime at this point. Then again, Trump never let the absence of facts stop him from exploiting a tragedy for political purposes.
Apparantly, Trump realizes that he will never get a Nobel Peace Prize, so I guess he just decided to drop the facade and just be who he truly is.
 
FBI says they have good video of shooter but will not release it.
 
I find the "martyr" bit interesting, since it's so widely used by extremist groups to justify deaths and further the cause.
 
The divider-in-shit, er... chief. That's not gonna calm down what he started with January 6th.

Yep. This is just an accelerant to what they're doing in trying to seal GOP seats, and the curbing of dissent across all sorts of institutions. We've seen this playbook executed many times before, but were often reading about it happening elsewhere.

Kirk isn't even buried and the shooter not even caught and they are ranting about the left.

They undoubtedly know who it is by now. This is an extremely dangerous man so hopefully they catch him soon.

Apparently the bolt-action rifle used has been found, but they don’t seem to have identified the shooter yet.

The fact that Trump doesn't know shit about the shooter proves he hates America, imo.

Well, the part that contains his political opponents anyway. It's pretty clear Trump's the trojan horse for all the right wing types seeking to secure control of the government and institutions in response to their loss in the culture wars. Rather than winning the battle of ideas, they've resorted to securing power so those ideas don't get challenges and those they feel are the rightful rulers of the US, maintain their power and benefits.

That campus would be full of surveillance cameras. They know who he is and his movements before and after the shooting.

They're keeping that to themselves for now.

Yes, the right might start shooting back, eventually. We'll see.

I'm guessing you live in that Fox News ecosystem that keeps people ignorant of reality, because you seem to have missed just this year, an anti vaxxer shooting up the CDC and a rightwinger killing a Democratic lawmaker and her husband with a list of prominent Dems. on a kill list

The right has never stopped shooting since Timothy McVeigh blew up the Federal Building in Oklahoma.

Bonus points on getting extra frothy and violent when the shooter isn't even caught and we have zero idea of his motivation.

They’re saying they have footage of him but haven’t identified him yet. Who knows what’s true though.

Standing on the chest of a corpse and pretending it's moral high ground.
