Another assassination attempt shows the Dems’ hostile playbook – blame the victim if it’s Trump By Michael Goodwin

He had it coming. It’s his own fault. Don’t blame us.

That sums up how leading Democrats and their media handmaidens are reacting to the second attempted assassination of Donald Trump. Remorse and concern about him or even the perils of the rising tide of everyday violence are in short supply.

Early voting has started, and they weren’t going to waste a day expressing anything other than hostility for the opponent they love to hate.

And so the chorus of Dems and their propagandists are fending off every charge that they bear any responsibility for the repeated attempts to kill the leader of the Republican Party.

Just because they compare him to Hitler and Mussolini doesn’t mean they actually want him dead.

And a Dem congressman wasn’t to be taken literally when he said Trump had to be “eliminated.”

The blanket denials are also aimed at making sure Trump doesn’t get any political benefit from being the target of another gunman.

To grant him even an iota of sympathy would be to give sympathy to the devil.

Leave it to Hillary Clinton to be the first to reach the bottom of the barrel.

Here’s what we know about the assassination attempt on Trump in Florida:

News photographers have used the gaps in foliage at Trump’s West Palm Beach golf club to take pictures of him — a security gap gunman Ryan Routh exploited.

Trying to hock yet another book about herself — isn’t everything about her? — she complained on MSNBC that the media aren’t tough enough on Trump — the day after the assassination attempt!

“The press is still not able to cover Trump the way that they should,” Clinton told Rachel ­Maddow.

“I don’t understand why it’s so difficult for the press to have a consistent narrative about how dangerous Trump is . . . his demagoguery, his danger to our country and the world. And stick with it.”

What I don’t understand is how much harder on Trump the media could be without suffering spontaneous combustion, but Maddow didn’t disagree with her guest.

Nor was she willing to discomfort viewers by reminding them that Clinton funded the phony Steele dossier in a bid to steal an election she couldn’t win.

Naturally, The New York Times signaled its approval of the Dems’ defiant stance.

Its top front-page piece on Tuesday was headlined “The Anger That Defines and Threatens Trump.”

See, he’s no angel, which is another way of suggesting he asked for it.
