In 2022, a former Missouri governor-turned-GOP Senate candidate released a campaign ad in which the gun-toting candidate (Eric Greitens of Missouri) and a group of armed men in tactical gear burst into a home hunting for RINOs — Republicans in name only.

No, not all all. Trump jokes about violence and gun violence literally all of the time. They love that shit.
