The leftist claim to moral authority drew its last breath on Saturday night.
As the country continues to process the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump, the left loses the moral high ground from which it condemned Trump’s rhetoric. The image of President Trump’s blood-stained face with fist raised in defiance following the assassination attempt will be a historic image for generations to come.
The progressive left has been an insurgent force in culture for decades and now dominates the realms of journalism, education, and law. But this power will not hold.
After years of straining to connect Trump to the events of January 6, 2021, it will be impossible to convince the public that leftist rhetoric played no role in Saturday’s assassination attempt.
Following the shots fired in Butler, Pennsylvania, the Democratic Party lost its argument alleging a commitment to “people over politics.”
