John Hoffman and his wife were shot and wounded same day. All Democrats so MAGA don't care enough to remember it.

(25,726 posts)When the victim is a republican not only is Fox blasting it out 24/7 but so are all the other media outlets.
The Melissa Hortman (and her husband and dog) murder story was a blip on the news. This was an actual politically motivated assassination. AND the same man shot another Dem rep John Hoffman 9 times and his wife 8 times... they survived. This should've been a massive story. Did trump call for the death penalty for him?
(IMO) Had they been republicans it would've been maximized on Fox and every R representative would be on every channel twisting the story to somehow blame the Dems.
Killing people used to be big news.
