It is strange to look a Trump as a victim of violence, when he is the biggest instigator of violence, but this is what happened on its face. The important question is why. Both attempts were made by what appears to be conservatives. I am a conservative as well. Sharing their anger, but strongly disagreeing with their "solution". Trump opened the door of violence, and often suggests it as a solution.
I don't like saying this but I am relieved that Trump won because the immediate risk of political violence has gone away - for the time being anyway . I know that this is just postponing a possible confrontation but hopefully it will give time for sensible and responsiiblle leaders to emerge and work to calm the situation and unify the country .
Great episode!

Political violence or not, it depends on the geographical location and political perspective.
Convenience.
