Nadler Uses His Opening Statement to Attack Republicans and Imply They’re to Blame for the Trump Assassination Attempt

EXCERPT:

NADLER: “And you would think a political party that almost lost their presidential candidate through an act of political violence would have something to say about the way their leaders keep talking about the next election. Donald Trump has warned there will be a, quote, 'bloodbath' if he loses. Republican Ohio State Senator George Lang said just last week at a rally for J.D. Vance that he is, quote, 'afraid that Civil War might be necessary if Republicans lose the November election.' President of the right-wing think tank and Project 2025 leader, the Heritage Foundation, Kevin Roberts, said on Stephen Bannon's podcast, quote, 'We're in the process of the second American revolution, which will remain bloodless if the left allows it to be,' close quote. Republican former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin said in August of last year of Trump's indictments, 'Do you want us to be in civil war? Because that's what's going to happen. We're not going to keep putting up with this. We do need to rise up and take our country back,' close quote. I could go on, but it's more and more of the same.”
