MAGA Republicans have been constantly demonized in this country’s recent political discourse. Democratic politicians have regularly labeled the group as a threat to democracy. It is a daily part of their rhetoric. Yet, a pragmatic analysis of recent events will show that is not true. While Democrats like to habitually bring up the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot, they always seem to ignore the stream of violence and destruction their acolytes have caused in recent days, weeks, months, and years. This is done on purpose.

The agents of political violence are on the Left, not the Right. The difference in response between recent events at Washington Union Station and the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump is the latest example of why.
