Other than perhaps a day or two pause for propriety, I just pray that Biden et al. don't ease up on calling out the threat of Trumpian Fascism because of misplaced political correctness.
Do not be dismayed. CNN, MSNBC, and a few other fake news media have already jumped on the opportunity to blame Trump for the shooting and insist that they could not possibly be accountable for their rhetoric.
Even though Biden had to pull his ads after the assassination attempt due to their inflammatory nature and lies (calling Trump a racist/fascist, etc), the Democrats and their media have no intention to stop throwing gasoline on the fire.
Meanwhile, I solemnly assure you: MAGA Republicans and the Right Wing media hate fascism far more than Democrats and the Left do. We hate it so much, we refuse to put it into practice. We haven't prosecuted Democrat candidates, or sent SWAT teams to terrorize pro-life families, or attempted to censer voices that speak against us.
After Trump is elected, our media watchdogs will certainly call out fascism as soon as it happens, as we already regarding Biden. We have no ideological allegiance to any party or race or political persons regarding the fight against injustice.
FOX News reported stories that were critical of Trump -- right at 50% of the time, according to some critic agency that monitors media bias. Ben Shapiro sorted his daily podcast stories according to
"Good Trump - Bad Trump," based on his opinion of Trump's actions on a given situation. If your news media are that balanced, trust them.
Otherwise, don't be gullible. Ditch the fake news. They likye to claim that Trump is a fascist, but they never have any facts to back up that claim. Just like they boast of all of Biden's significant accomplishments over the last 3.5 years, without ever naming one.
