Just days before an apparent assassination attempt on President Donald Trump's life, one of the Democratic Party's leaders called for "maximum warfare" against Republicans.
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., made the inflammatory remark while warning Gov. Ron DeSantis, R-Fla., against redrawing the state's congressional map ahead of November's midterm elections.
Jeffries said that if DeSantis attempted to counter Democratic gains in Virginia following the state's aggressive gerrymander, Democrats would continue to ratchet up pressure on Republicans nationwide.
"We are in an era of maximum warfare. Everywhere, all the time," Jeffries said Wednesday at a news conference.
Three days later, a California man allegedly attempted to assassinate the president Saturday evening at the annual White House Correspondents' Dinner at the Washington Hilton in Washington, D.C.

Democrats always whine and complain about "Trump's rhetoric," which while crass and often self defeating, does not rise to the level of calls for violence.
We have Jeffries, Bonnie Watson, and countless other Democrat members of Congress making calls for violence. Waston said the other day we need to "eliminate the President." Then they pretend to take the moral high ground and demand Republicans "tone down the rhetoric."
