Donald Trump has attempted to counter the Democratic narrative that he is a threat to democracy by linking their rhetoric to threats on his life, following two recent assassination attempts. Critics argue that left-wing violence is often overlooked, highlighting incidents against Trump and other conservatives. On the left, some suggest Trump's own rhetoric incites violence. Meanwhile, conservative voices claim that political violence is predominantly a left-wing phenomenon, citing examples of campus unrest and other attacks. However, concerns persist about the potential for violence from Trump's supporters, as evidenced by rising tensions and threats in areas like Ohio. The debate over political rhetoric and violence remains deeply polarized, with each side attributing blame to the other.
