Who was this Dem "michaelandwicket" claims was assassinated? Melissa Hortman, who was murdered by a nutcase Goobernor Walz had appointed to his Workforce Development Board? Trying to mountainize that mole hill into morally equivalent to 3 or 4 Trump-Haters making assassination attempts doesn't work.
That non-equivalency aside, how many Rs claimed the murder/assassination of Hortman was a staged fake? How many Rs celebrated Hortman's death?
ETA: DU-folk are also guessing that the memester was referring to Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark.
WRT the killer, from
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2025_shootings_of_Minnesota_legislators#Accused :
Federal charging documents described Boelter as acting with "the intent to kill, injure, harass, and intimidate Minnesota legislators".[6] His anti-abortion views are a possible motive.[73] Boelter was registered to vote in Oklahoma as a Republican for the 2004 United States presidential election, although on a state document in 2019 he wrote that he had "no party preference".[8] A longtime Sleepy Eye, Minnesota resident who knew Boelter since he was a fourth-grade student in his childhood town in 1976 told reporters he was stunned to learn that Boelter was a suspect in the attacks. He described Boelter as "a conservative who voted for President Donald Trump and was strongly against abortion rights", and said Boelter was having financial problems and struggling to find work, adding that "he was looking around but immediately gave up and decided to go out in the blaze of glory" and saying that "there was darkness inside of him".[8][74] Boelter's wife told investigators their family "prepared for major or catastrophic incidents" and that, after the shootings, he warned her by text message that "they should prepare for war, they needed to get out of the house and people with guns may be showing up to the house".[75]
IOW, the killer might have voted for Trump, but his motives were likely personal rather than political. Boelter was a bit of a misfit mountebank, a career-hopper who never settled on and succeeded in any.
