It’s become clearer than ever: when the left speaks, no matter how incendiary or dangerous, it’s met with a collective shrug. Yet, when someone on the right makes a point, the media and their cronies in Washington act like it’s the end of civilization as we know it. Elon Musk, someone who can’t be pinned down as a typical “right-winger,” recently exposed this hypocrisy in the wake of two assassination attempts on former President Donald Trump.
Two Assassination Attempts and Media Silence
Let’s talk about the facts. Two separate assassination attempts on Donald Trump in just the past few months. The first occurred in Butler, Pennsylvania, when a gunman fired eight shots, with one grazing Trump’s ear. The second, even more terrifying, happened at Trump’s West Palm Beach golf course, where an armed suspect, Ryan Wesley Routh, was caught less than 500 yards from the former president.
Now, you’d think assassination attempts on a former U.S. president would spark outrage across the political spectrum, right? But what’s the reaction from the left? No fiery condemnations, no calls for unity, and certainly no wall-to-wall media coverage. Instead, we’re treated to endless discussions about how Trump is the real danger. How absurd is this narrative? Trump, a man who has been the target of more attacks—political and literal—than any president in modern history, is somehow still painted as the “dangerous” one.
Elon Musk Speaks Out
In response to these events, Musk took to X (formerly Twitter) to state an obvious fact: no one is trying to assassinate Biden or Harris. This wasn’t a call for violence. Musk wasn’t suggesting that anyone should attempt such a thing. He was merely pointing out that while Trump is being targeted, Biden and Harris are not. The implication is simple—Trump is a threat to the status quo, while Biden and Harris, seen as continuation figures, don’t pose the same risk to the establishment.
Yet, how did the left react? They twisted Musk’s words, accusing him of inciting violence against Biden and Harris. What a joke! Musk’s comment was clear: he wasn’t calling for harm to come to anyone. Instead, he was highlighting the political reality that Trump, more than any other figure, poses a challenge to the establishment—which is exactly why he’s being targeted.
The Left’s Dangerous Double Standard
We live in a world where rhetoric from the left—no matter how dangerous, divisive, or violent—is shrugged off. Let’s not forget when Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer stood on the steps of the Supreme Court and directly threatened Justices Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh during the heated debate over Roe v. Wade. Schumer declared, “You have released the whirlwind, and you will pay the price.” That wasn’t an offhand comment. It was a direct threat to two sitting Supreme Court Justices. Where was the media outrage? Where were the demands for unity and civility?
And then there’s the late Sheila Jackson Lee, who told Democrats to “get in the face of Republicans” and harass them. She openly encouraged confrontation and harassment. Did the media call for her to apologize? Did anyone on the left condemn her inflammatory rhetoric? Of course not. The media turned a blind eye, as they always do when the rhetoric comes from their side.
This is the double standard we’re up against. When the left is calling for harassment or making threats against conservatives, it’s brushed off. Yet when someone like Elon Musk simply points out that no one is trying to kill Biden or Harris, his words are twisted and turned into something they’re not.
This isn’t just unfair—it’s dangerous. The left is playing a game of selective outrage, only condemning speech when it suits their political agenda while turning a blind eye to the violence and threats coming from their own side. When Chuck Schumer threatens Supreme Court justices, or when Sheila Jackson Lee encourages harassment, the media shrugs. But when Elon Musk makes a factual observation, suddenly it’s a call for violence? Give me a break.
The left’s silence when it comes to their own inflammatory rhetoric speaks volumes. We need to call it out for what it is: a dangerous double standard that puts conservative voices and lives at risk.
Where Is the Outrage?
Let’s reverse this situation for a moment. Imagine that an armed gunman tried to take out Joe Biden or Kamala Harris. Do you think the media would be silent? Do you think the left would be quiet? Absolutely not. We’d see wall-to-wall coverage, tears shed on CNN, and rallies across the country calling for unity against political violence.
But because the target is Trump, it’s apparently no big deal. The relative silence from the left proves what we’ve known all along: they don’t care about violence unless it fits their narrative. The double standard is obvious and chilling.
Musk’s Call for Action
What makes Elon Musk’s stance even more admirable is that he didn’t just stop at condemning the media’s hypocrisy. Musk has taken action. He’s pledged to lead Trump’s proposed government efficiency commission if Trump is reelected. Musk understands what’s at stake here, not just for Trump, but for the future of this country. And he’s willing to step up and serve if given the chance.
Despite being attacked from all sides, Musk remains firm in his support for Trump, even after the media’s relentless efforts to demonize him. Musk isn’t backing down, and neither should we.
The Real Threat
Here’s the real truth: the left doesn’t fear violence—they fear the loss of control. They know that Trump is a genuine threat to their grip on power, and they’ll stop at nothing to destroy him. Whether it’s through legal battles, media smears, or—as we’ve seen—physical violence, they’re pulling out all the stops.
But let’s be clear: the real threat here isn’t Trump. It’s the double standard that allows violence against conservative figures to go unchallenged. It’s the media and politicians who turn a blind eye when their rhetoric leads to real-world consequences. And it’s the left’s relentless push to silence and destroy anyone who stands in the way of their agenda.
We’ve had enough. It’s time to call out this hypocrisy for what it is: dangerous, destructive, and un-American. We can’t sit idly by while the left continues to push their divisive, hateful rhetoric without consequences. And we can’t let their silence in the face of violence go unnoticed.
Final Thoughts
Elon Musk is right to call out this hypocrisy, and we should follow his lead. The attacks on Trump aren’t just attacks on a man—they’re attacks on all of us who believe in free speech, fair elections, and the future of this country. It’s time we stand up, speak out, and demand that the left be held to the same standards they impose on the rest of us.
We can’t let this double standard continue unchecked. Let the media know we see their bias. Let the politicians know we see their silence. And let the world know we won’t back down.
