West Virginia Governor Jim Justice employed incendiary rhetoric during his speech at the Republican National Convention, only days after Republicans began advocating for unity in the wake of an assassination attempt on their nominee.
“The bottom line for why we’re here, the bottom line to every single thing going on in this great country today, is one thing,” Justice declared on Tuesday night. “We become totally unhinged if Donald Trump is not elected in November.”
Calls for politicians to tone down hostile language have intensified across both sides of the political aisle following the shooting incident involving former President Donald Trump. Trump was wounded at a rally in Pennsylvania on Saturday, an attack that also resulted in the death of one rally attendee and left two others seriously injured.
In response to the incident, Republicans have criticized President Joe Biden and the Democrats for their rhetoric. They particularly condemned Bidenβs use of the term βbullseyeβ when referring to Trump before the shooting.
Trump himself has been known for making violent remarks throughout both his campaigns and presidency, contributing to the charged political climate.
