Trump Assassination Horror: America Is Not Ready For What Comes Next
b'At the time of this recording,\\xa0we know little\\xa0about the attempt to assassinate Donald Trump. He was hit in the ear, but thankfully doesn\\u2019t appear seriously injured. The 20-year-old gunman\\xa0has been identified\\xa0as Thomas Matthew Crooks. He was registered as a Republican but donated $15 to a progressive group in January 2021, and we know nothing of his motive. Political violence is absolutely unacceptable no matter who is targeted. So for now we will focus on the bigger picture: We talked to Zack Beauchamp, author of a\\xa0new book\\xa0called\\xa0The Reactionary Spirit\\xa0and a\\xa0piece\\xa0for Vox called: \\u201cAmerica is not ready for what comes next,\\u201d about whether this horror will lead to an escalation and what it says that American society is again at this point.\\xa0\\nLearn more about your ad choices.
