Also bombs sent to Kamala Harris and Schulz.
While the right wing is creating a false narrative about the violent left, the surge of violence seen i the US is mostly motivated by right wing ideologies.

False narrative he says. That's great!Originally Posted by Guisslapp
It is. You guys will fall for everything the right wing pundits says these days. Trump has y’all eating out of the palms of his hands. I haven’t seen anything like it.
This is the part where, if you were on the other side of this, you would say "show me where Donald Trump has called for violence against these people".
Criticizing isn't the same as calling for violence. Granted I don't think he has condemned the violent rhetoric as much as he should.
What do you think it means when you call someone “an enemy of the people”?
Are you saying that is evidence that he called for violence against them? I don't think you are applying your own standard here.
“Trump has stoked a cold civil war in this Country," tweeted Steve Schmidt, a former Republican strategist who ran Sen. John McCain's 2008 presidential campaign and announced he was leaving the GOP earlier this year. "His rallies brim with menace and he has labeled journalists as enemies of the people. That someone would seek to kill their political enemies is not aberrational but rather the inevitable consequence of Trump's incitement."
Trump thrives on this culture of divisiveness and his constant battle rhetoric is designed to enflame people’s fear and hatred. This is what I needed referring to when I refer to the damage he is inflicting on our country. This is not a healthy leadership style. He needs to be checked.
Not specifically, but his constant assault inspires this sort of behavior.
I didn’t say he called for violence - I said that he “inspired” it. The uptick in right wing violence is a direct result of him enflaming their fears and hatred for his own political gain.
Maxine Waters got one too. Really the “Who’s who” of all the right wing vitriol.
Hhmmm, Trump and Pence came out condemning all violence from either side. Have the dems done the same yet?
Would you say that that is the type of rhetoric that "inspires" left wing violence?
What do you mean? If left wing leaders used such hostile rhetoric as much as Trump does then, yeah, there might be more left wing violence.
The bombs were bought by Soros and sent by his operatives. He knew the bombs would be intercepted, so no one would get hurt, but now the left can go on a predictable rant. It was a setup. If you think, well, some postal worker could have been blown to bits...keep in mind Pelosi just said there will be "acceptable collateral damage." The left doesn't care about the average postal worker, or anyone else. They are Orwell's pigs and will kill anyone who gets in the way of their lust for power.
just in case you are serious, I mean the statement that you quoted and that you made.
“Trump has stoked a cold civil war in this Country,"
"His rallies brim with menace and he has labeled journalists as enemies of the people."
"That someone would seek to kill their political enemies is not aberrational but rather the inevitable consequence of Trump's incitement."

"...when I refer to the damage he is inflicting on our country"
"He needs to be checked"
Is that not "hostile rhetoric"? Doesn't seem that different than the things Trump is saying.
I don't like the things Trump says, but he doesn't have a monopoly on these things.
I don’t think you can be typing any of your comments with a straight face. If the left was any more violent, due to their rhetoric, conservatives would be gunned down in broad daylight. Oh wait, Steve Scalise might have something to say about that. The socialists left has no moral ground to stand on with respect to the violence.
