So it's our fault--we are the "they" that tried to kill him, according to Florida Man.

Just got this piece of propaganda from Greg Steube, a gun-humping, useless, MAGAty Florida representative for the 17th district.

"July 14, 2024
Dear Floridian:
I know many of us are deeply worried about President Trump after the horrific attempt to take his life last night at a rally. First, they tried to jail him and now they’ve tried to kill him. This is a sad, sad moment for our country. I continue to pray for President Trump, his family, and everyone in Pennsylvania affected by this senseless violence. Evil will not win, this is America."

Yeah, Greg, ridiculously lax gun regulations and violent rhetoric from the MAGA right had nothing to do with this. Let's vote out this POS, Florida.

He's a f---in criminal many times over. He gets no free pass. He's not above the law.

Evil won't win as long as the Orange Hellbeast loses in November. Our job is to make sure evil loses.
