EXPLAINED: Sen rubio links rhetoric to trump assassination attempts | Vintage Vibes

Republican. U.S. Senator Marco Rubio appears at his U.S. midterm election night gathering in Miami

During a recent interview, Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., delved into the impact of rhetoric surrounding former President Trump, particularly labeling him as 'dangerous.' The discussion arose in light of Trump's claims that extreme rhetoric from President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris may have incited two assassination attempts against him.

Rubio pointed to the case of Ryan Wesley Routh, the suspect in the second alleged assassination attempt on Trump, suggesting that Routh was 'clearly' influenced by rhetoric emanating from Democrats. Rubio highlighted the dangers of repeatedly likening someone to historical tyrants like Adolf Hitler or Benito Mussolini, as well as portraying them as a potential American dictator.
