#new Hakeem Jeffries is being called out after saying he was ‘praying for the safety’ of people who were at the White House correspondent’s dinner after a gunman attempted to ass*ssinate President Donald Trump.
“Thankful for the swift law enforcement action to protect everyone from gunfire at the White House Correspondents Dinner.”
“Praying for the safety of those who may remain in harm’s way. The violence and chaos in America must end.”
However, critics were quick to point out that just days ago, the Democrat vowed “maximum warfare, everywhere, all the time” in the fight against Republican-led map changes in states like Florida. **
“Our message to Florida Republicans is f around and find out. The Republicans are dummy-mandering their way into the minority before a single vote is cast.”
“Because they started this war and we’re going to finish it. Go ahead and make our day. We are all in in Florida. We are in an era of maximum warfare everywhere, all the time.”
Conservatives say it’s this type of rhetoric and the continued attacks from the Democrats, calling Trump a tyrant, dictator, Nazi and accusing him of being a threat to democracy is what continues to fuel the ass*ssination attempts on the President.
They point out that Jeffries and many Democrats spent years objectifying Trump and his supporters as existential threats, calling them “MAGA extremists,” enemies of democracy, and worse.
Then when the violence they fuel happens, they send sudden prayers and fabricated concern.
They argue this rhetoric from democrats like Jeffries helps create the environment where people feel justified in acting out violence against conservatives.
