They are relatively impenetrable to any view that does not suggest the need for more guns.
MTG has said so already.
An assassination attempt on Teddy Roosevelt played out this exact way (including waving his bloody fist in the air), and that incident helped put him into office.
I seriously doubt he’s going to be cordial when Biden calls him
Well, no. He actually ended up standing there and giving his long ass speech, rather than be escorted off by the pinkertons.

Almost.
The attempted assassin was also captured alive and later committed. But as for the long speech, Trump is going to get a lot more mileage out of the photo with a bloody raised fist.

Do not believe my word for it.
T-shirts of him posing (and risking the life of his Secret Service detail who he delayed getting to safety) will likely be sold on his site, next to his mug shot merch.
Foolishness. You know well enough the other side will crank up the rhetoric to 11. A significant amount of their audience are not rational actors. And don’t think after this Trump will act civil
“Trump could be heard on the video saying at least twice, “Let me get my shoes, let me get my shoes,” with another voice heard saying, “I’ve got you sir.””
What was that about? Did they fall off?
