In the wake of the second assassination attempt against President Donald Trump in just two months, Democrats have been almost unanimous in claiming there’s no room for political violence in America.

But that’s not what all their party members have said in the past.

For instance, Del. Stacey Plaskett, the Democrat non-voting delegate from the U.S. Virgin Islands, said, “He needs to be shot … stopped.”

She’s become a favorite of the party, being named as the ranking member of the House Select Subcommittee on Weaponization of the Federal Government, which is examining how the Biden-Harris administration has turned the bureaucracies of the federal government into weapons of war, and warfare, against Trump and Republicans.

She boasts on her website that in that position she works “to ensure Democratic members of this Subcommittee focus on evidence-based inquiries and not wild conspiracy theories.”

She states, “The Republican’s (sic) attempt to derail the federal government’s obligation to investigate and conduct due process on actions, organizations, and individuals that threaten our republic and create an anti-democratic environment will be met with strong resistance by Ms. Plaskett and her Democratic colleagues on the subcommittee.”

She also was an impeachment manager for one of ex-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s failed impeach-and-remove campaigns against Trump.

That wasn’t the only threat to Trump, either.

One video has assembled more than two minutes of direct threats, often from politicians, entertainers and other public figures:

Among the comments:

“I’d like to punch him in the face.”

“If we were in high school I’d take him behind the gym and beat the hell out of him,” from Joe Biden

“When was the last time an actor assassinated a president?”

“They’re still going to have to go out and put a bullet in Donald Trump. That’s a fact.”

“Where is John Wilkes Booth when you need him?”

“I have thought an awful lot about blowing up the White House.”

Fibis I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
