Several Republicans on Sunday tempered their denunciations of an attack on Paul Pelosi, the husband of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), casting blame for political violence on “both sides” of the aisle.
“But, of course, we wish Paul Pelosi a recovery,” McDaniel added. “We don’t like this at all across the board. We don’t want to see attacks on any politician from any political background.”
“Look, it’s not just about former president Trump,” he said. “I mean, people are getting upset about inflation. They’re getting upset, with you know, issues that happened on what we would consider a very minor level, but to them, it’s passionate, it’s the end.” Klobuchar also slammed social media companies for making money by allowing election falsehoods and hate speech to proliferate. Her remarks came shortly after Elon Musk, who just acquired Twitter last week,about the Paul Pelosi attack on the platform that he now owns. Several hours later, Musk deleted the tweet.
