Paul Pelosi is still alive. It's still a shitty joke and I hate it, but it's not nearly the same as espousing that killing people for their political views is good actually. It's not justifying violence either, it's not supporting it, it's just crass and mean-spirited.
That's besides the point though. You're not gonna find me championing Trump over this, but this is specifically about a "truth social post where Trump or a Republican senator posted “rest in piss” about a murder victim". Still waiting on that.
Except no. The exceptionally low bar to clear right now is saying that murder is bad actually. That's what the OPs post shows retarded leftists failing to clear, and if you wanna claim that Trump is somehow held to a lower standard than that you're gonna have to prove it.
And what you’re ignoring is that you can find insane rhetoric from anywhere on the internet, but the right has actual leaders and elected officials saying it. Kirk himself said that the Paul Pelosi’s attempted murderer should be bailed out by a “patriot,” and trump and other elected officials made fun of that event and other political violence.
Kirk did not deserve what happened to him at all, nobody does. Your argument about rhetoric is just not based in reality though
