    Because she was a right-wing grifter before she got together with the perforee. She’s not going to give up a perfectly good angle so easily.

        You’re right, they have to crop shots of most of the GOP events to avoid showing how poorly-attended they are, and she’s no different. Part of me wonders whether people show up to see if the person on stage gets iced, but if they do have that level of self-awareness, I wonder if they’re actually buying into the narrative that “the other side” is so violent that they’d take pot shots at media figures. Threat modeling between the ends of the political spectrum aside, the trend indicates that it’s people who don’t think the right wing goes far-enough who tend to take the shots.
