“Morning Joe” host Micah Brzezinski sat down as the show’s main anchor on Monday and swiftly plunged into Friday’s violent attack against Paul Pelosi at her San Francisco home.
Believing that the attacker David Depp, who was looking for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, was a “neurotic, right-wing fanatic” who fell victim to the manipulation and conspiracy theories of Donald Trump’s cult of the Republican Party, Brzezinski dismissed the debate. done over the weekend which took away his intention from the right-wing rhetoric.
He also called on political figures such as Trump, Marjorie Taylor Greene and House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy for principles that incite violence from their most vulnerable constituents.
Deranged right-wing extremists, Trump-media allies and some of the world’s most powerful people were trying to foment conspiracy theories deviating from the central political title of this story: Years of Republican propaganda and Trump-fueled fascism, 42-year-old David DePape led to breaking into Nancy Pelosi’s San Francisco home, seemingly with intent to harm her,” Brzezinski said, adding that DePape could be charged with attempted murder as early as Monday. .
Reports suggest that DePape reprimanded Paul Pelosi with a hammer before fracturing his skull, asking his wife “Where’s Nancy?” Where was K with crying? – Not unlike those heard during the January 6th Uprising on the Capitol.
“A connection? What connection? I don’t see any connection,” the host said sarcastically, expressing fake surprise. “Why would there be any connection? I mean, he was just neurotic, wasn’t he? in a lonely way. And by the way, voters, look here, crime has increased. Trumpists shout, ‘Look at the analogy until January 6th.’ A review of David DePape’s accounts suggests that he was part of a far-right world of hate, anti-Semitism and conspiracy theories, including anti-vax hysteria and voter fraud. Ignore the fact that these right-wing punches are in line with the biggest lies Trump and Trumpists have ever propagated. ,
After showing reels of clips from January 6, evidence of lies spread by politicians like Greene and McCarthy, and Trump’s reels propelled by other conspiracy theories at various rallies over the years, Brzezinski boiled his point down to his own conclusion.
“There was no misrepresentation of what happened,” she said. “Can we emphasize that this attack was not a direct result of the dangerous, violent rhetoric we’ve heard from Donald Trump’s Republican Party over the past six years? The neurotic man who violently assaulted Paul Pelosi could have guessed it out of nowhere.” Should we ignore the fact that threats against the Speaker of the House have been typical for a long time?
She continued: “There are many weak, deranged minds in this country like the man who attacked Paul Pelosi. But Republicans have been hiding behind the word ‘neurotic’ as if it were an isolated incident, and you just have to pay attention to that. Should give, not see anything else, even if he’s yelling at you. And still you can see where DePape’s ideas came from.”
“Nutrous people can fall prey to a cult leader like Donald Trump – and they have.”
