the shooter being a registered republican white guy makes it so hard for trump to wrap it into his narrative. the illegal immigrants are dangerous? ok who shot you. the radical left are violent? yeah but who vaporized your ear it even negates that incredible photo. “fight!”? fight against WHO dude

On Chris Hayes podcast with Jamelle Bouie they talked about a possible reason for optimism: Project 2025 seems to have deeply penetrated TikTok. Anecdotally, my 15 yr old mentioned to me all the counselors she works with at camp have been talking about it and what rights they’re worried about losing

The fucked up thing is that you saw the right collectively getting ready to move if this guy was a leftist. It doesn’t matter if 10 maniacs in a row are rightwing and they just shrug and move on, they’re getting ready for the one time it’s not.

As soon as we learned that Crooks was a registered Republican it was clear that the assassination attempt was going to be a two-day story.

Reminder that I work in a library and these people would put me in jail for recommending the Bluest Eye, Kindred, the Gilda Stories and more. All books I've recommended in the recent past.

Psst: Project 2025 is terrifying for a lot of reasons but also because on page 5 it calls for teachers and librarians who grant access to books that are maligned as pornography (which just means anything LGBTQ) to be registered as sex offenders. Pass it on.

So, like every middle schooler in the country? Thoughts and prayers.

Trump is 100% now imagining getting shot at every time he gets in front of a crowd, for the rest of his life.

more to the point none of the coverage seems to note this fairly remarkable fact, especially amid all the talk of unity or whatever

The pre-Trump GOP has been memory-holed

From one reluctant phonebanker to another, thank you! It's not my favorite task but I know it makes a difference (and thanks @djdynamicnc.bsky.social for validating that from the other side!)

As a campaign manager I assure you that there is basically nothing more valuable than a volunteer who will regularly complete the core voter outreach tasks, if you are canvassing or making calls on a regular basis and even halfway decent, you are worth your weight in gold <3

Well this is heartening. What do Trump supporters in Butler PA, where he was shot, think of J.D. Vance and other MAGA politicians’ claims that Biden and liberals’ criticisms of Trump incited the (GOP) shooter to shoot him?They all say: bullshit. Gift link: wapo.st/4d48RcR

They love Trump. They reject that Biden inspired the rally shooting.wapo.st Prominent Republicans, including running mate Sen. J.D. Vance, blamed the president, But those who live near the shooting see a different culprit.

Project 2025 wants to put Hyun Sook and I, and anyone else who writes books they falsely scream "pornography" at, in prison. They want the teachers and librarians who shelve our books to be registered sex offenders. I know what books they consider "porn," because my book banners are on their board.

It's amazing, but not surprising, that the media's reaction to a Republican white guy shooting Trump is that we on the left need to change our behavior and start treating Republicans better. It'd be humorous if it wasn't so predictable and disheartening.
