Trump decries Democrats’ rhetoric after a White House Correspondents’ Dinner shooting, yet the piece argues his own history of inflammatory remarks—celebrating Mueller’s death, praising violence, and mocking opponents— undermines his moral stance. Public opinion polls show Americans on both sides increasingly link rhetoric to violence and blame the other side, revealing a widening “split reality” that risks normalizing polarization rather than tamping it down.
