Many left-leaning media pundits and Democratic figures offered extreme takes on the motive for an attack against House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s husband over the weekend.
"It was an assassination attempt, an extension of January 6th, the full expression of the new mantra of a political party gone insane. Call it that! I WANT Biden to state this MAGA terrorism was inspired by Trump," far-left podcast host Keith Olbermann quoted himself from his podcast"Countdown with Keith Olbermann."
Actor Rob Reiner tweeted,"Donald Trump has been spreading The Big Lie for 2 years. The violent assault on Paul Pelosi and the attempt to murder Speaker Pelosi is directly related to that Lie. Donald Trump is 100% responsible for this and Jan.6. He must be indicted and never be allowed to hold office."
"We should not be shocked that this happened. We have seen the storm clouds of political violence assemble. There is a direct line from January 6 to today. And it stretches even farther backward. We should be very careful about using the term 'fascism,' but a political system plunging toward normalized violence and instability is one that is taking on very dark undertones," Rather and Kirschner wrote.
