it's far worse than that
Not a single Democratic official that I can find reacted to Kirk's death with anything other than strong condemnation of political violence. Meanwhile dozens, if not hundreds, of Republicans have reacted by calling for civil war, calling Democrats the "death party" and the like with Trump leading the charge.
Today, Vance himself said 'left-wing extremism' helped lead to Charlie Kirk's killing. Hey Vance, how about you quit being a hypocritical asshole? As someone pointed out, I can think of only 2 major politicians who ever directly said Trump was as bad as Hitler - JD Vance & RFK, JR.
