I will comment on the horrific events of a week ago. For the second time in 3 months, President Donald Trump was the subject of an assassination attempt. The question is why and what can we do to prevent it from happening again. I have followed politics my whole life. I have never seen such language of hate coming from President Trump's opposition as I have heard from anybody else. Again and again, President Joe Biden has said: There is one existential threat. It is Donald Trump. President Biden has said: Trump and the MAGA Republicans, whatever that is, represent extremism that threatens the very foundations of our Republic. They claim it is going to be the end of our democracy. I am not sure they know what democracy means. In any event, their clear intent is to tell the American people that Donald Trump will permanently change the type of Nation we have. This is absurd, and they ought to be called out for it by the mainstream press. They ought to be forced to--not forced, but begged to until they eventually do apologize to President Trump and say there is no evidence this is going to be the end of democracy, whatever that means, so we can avoid a third assassination attempt. I beg these people to please come to the floor here and apologize to President Trump. ____________________
