When America Says Enough!
Victor Davis Hanson issues a chilling warning: When political violence becomes normalized, no one is safe. From the Scalise shooting to the attempts on Donald Trump — and now the shocking targeting of Charlie Kirk — America has crossed into dangerous new territory. The left justifies it all under a cloak of moral superiority, convinced that Trump and his supporters are an “existential evil.”
That logic breeds a culture where assassins are canonized, where journalists become fair game, and where even attempted murder sparks applause across social media. Hanson calls this what it is: The corrosion of the republic.
Elites preach tolerance while fueling hatred, branding millions of Americans as “deplorables,” “garbage,” and “chumps.” That language isn’t harmless—It filters down into action, emboldening those who see violence as virtue.
Charlie Kirk’s targeting shows the spiral is no longer hypothetical. If words matter, then so does the rhetoric of a ruling class that demonizes its political opponents. The question Hanson leaves us with: How far will this go before America finally says enough?
