It’s become increasingly clear that political violence in America doesn’t follow a simple partisan script, a reality Stephen King recently highlighted on X. In a direct response to claims that the Democratic Party is inherently violent, King rattled off a sobering list of historical figures who faced assassination attempts.
King noted, “Umm…Reagan got shot…Gerald Ford barely avoided it (twice)…JFK got his head blown off…ditto RFK…MLK…I could go on, but the point is the crazies are non-partisan. They’re just nuts.”
