Imagine the chaos which was nearly unleashed on this country (and the world) this evening. If that bullet had been an inch to the right, our timeline would have taken a sharp turn into instability and the unknown, for all of us - Republicans, Democrats and Independents alike.
Tonight I am thanking God that the shooter failed in his mission and praying for the families of those who died.
What needs to happen is a swift and permanent cooling of the rhetoric on both sides, but I fear this will only inflame it instead.
The major sentiment I see on X so far from those on the right is that this will cement Trump's re-election.
Among those who lean left on X, I am seeing the word "staged" trending. And a few saying, in effect, "he brought it on himself".
I doubt this is going to bring much introspection!
