GOP Demand for Trump Respect Met with Widespread Mockery

Michael Rulli expressed dismay over Democrats’ rhetoric, urging for it to be “toned down,” despite numerous instances of inflammatory language and actions by Republicans, including Donald Trump. Rulli focused on the death of Charlie Kirk, the founder of Turning Point USA, and the subsequent accusations against Democrats. This contrasts with the history of Trump and other Republicans, and their rhetoric against Democrats and other public figures. The article highlights instances of violent acts, hate speech, and disrespectful behavior on the right, including the weaponization of Kirk’s death for political gain, showing the hypocrisy of the Republican party.
