This has been a difficult week, with the assassination of Turning Point USA co-founder Charlie Kirk. It's prompted a lot of discussion about dangerous rhetoric and security.
Earlier in the week, President Donald Trump went out to eat in Washington, D.C., to demonstrate that the city is safer after his crime crackdown. He went to Joe's Seafood, Prime Steak, and Stone Crab, near the White House. He's certainly made the streets safer for people in D.C., and he was cheered when he arrived. While Trump was at the restaurant, there was another concerning moment that raised questions about the Secret Service. As Trump was being ushered to his seat

“Call them out.” That’s our new battle cry.
But: we’ve had 10+ years of this. During which time young people crawled through Covid and became addicted to (fill in the blank.)
AND, we’ve elevated marginal IQ and dubious people of character to the highest echelons of power.
10 years is a long time to nurture hate in smoke-filled chat rooms.
We have created our own version of “radical Islamists.”
“Call them out”? They have morphed into crazed demons who don’t understand when they’ve been called out and, understand only violence.
Unfortunately, I’m not sure there is an answer for our dilemma.

Despite the best efforts of the MSM, many young Dems are seeing their party for what it is - a sham of lies and deceit. They have just witnessed the brutal murder of a political opponent and don't like what they see.

How did these people know he would be at the restaurant? Obviously they had their rhetoric all ready for his appearance. Somebody told them where he would be. Better check with security and see who slipped them the information.

People who repeatedly call Trump Hitler aren't being told anything they don't know. It is a deliberately provocative gesture intended to get a response. And yes, there should be a response. Not cursing them back. But getting them dismissed like Kirk assassination celebrators.

Maher has been on the other side of the wall throwing stones for far too long for me to be accepting this honesty all of a sudden. If the nattering nellies show up where Trump and his entourage go to dinner, people could be watching the White House constantly and see when the group of black limos ventures out. But yes, I would imagine that leftist implants still work there. Back when the Obamas went to dinner, the SS would empty the entire restaurant and the street in front of it. The riff raff were not permitted to get close to him. In these days of leftist outrage, that might not be a bad idea.

The left is losing, and they know it. Now they are truly dangerous.

There's ole Bill ,,, Again. Sticking his thumb in the air to see which way the wind is blowing. He'll flip in an instant and become a hard left democrat cheerleader when / if democrats get the House, the Senate and the Presidency.

Somewhat, but then he gets into that "both sides" BS. It isn't both sides, it's only one, and that is the cause of the increasing desire for vengeance, or at least a non-milquetoast response, which is all that our side has had to offer up until now. That will probably continue, after the saber-rattling dies down, as it will.
"We're better than that" is the mantra of a loser.

Maybe the leftists should be thinking about the personal consequences of actual "both sides" hostilities. Growing up in the 1960s, my country and its media taught me that nightly body count reports effectively sway public opinion. Body counts of our own sons, daughters, brothers, sisters, and parents were more effective than enemy soldier or VC insurgent body count reports in affecting public opinion sufficiently to affect the trajectory of a war. I also learned that it was our national policy to kill communists overseas, based on the "domino theory," to avoid having to fight them on our nation's streets, and the very notion of voting them into public office was once considered absurd. A big shift occurred in the 1970s, when the 'elite,' those born of privilege sufficient to avoid being conscripted into our Armed Forces and criminal draft dodgers, began being voted in to public office, aided by an ever-creeping leftist dominated media and an educational industry, focused primarily on leftist dogma. Now that conservatives are high on the endangered species list, logic would indicate that stopping the open war on conservatives might more readily be accomplished by rising leftist body counts, with ''both sides having an equal chance of sudden death. Ignoring or simply "calling out" rapidly multiplying cancer cells is not how one survives cancer. Cancer cells are killed down to fresh, non-cancerous cells. The fundamental tenets of Islam and communism, as we've witnessed them play out, are demonstrably antithetical to our Constitution and the very notion of Western civilization, the cultivated grounds for individual freedom and liberty. How many hostages, taken and held by Palestinians, in vile acts of total war against a small, relatively isolated sovereign nation, were released before Israel began killing Palestinian leaders and front line Palestinian terrorists in ever-increasing numbers? In any conflict, when 'both sides' suffer, resolution is likely more forthcoming.

Bill Maher has been consistent on two topics. Free speech and Islamic terrorism. Free speech aside, he shares responsibility for leftist violence, because he's been out there claiming that Trump is a threat to democracy and he has and still does spread disinformation. Despite the number of times that his claims have been debunked.
That said, he is the first well known liberal that I've heard come out and say that Trump isn't Hitler, and to knock it off. For that, I'll give him props.

The uneducated trashy left always has to demonstrate that they know nothing about history and are as dumb as a rock.
