No, I mean Dylann Roof, Wade Michael Page (attacker of Sikh temple in Wisconsin, 2012), the attacker of the Quebec mosque last month (proclaimed Trump fan), John Russell Houser, who opened fire in a movie theater in Louisiana in 2015 and identified as a member of the Tea Party, the many who have attacked Planned Parenthood clinics on the basis of right wing “Christian values”, and I’m not counting the numerous would-be perpetrators who were apprehended before they could act, found with arsenals of weaponry, ammunition and laid out plans…

So really, I mean targeted attacks and party members/sympathizers. Not politicians and policy.

Of course the pendulum swings both ways but that seems to be more of the trend; homegrown terrorism performed by religious/neo-nazi extremists identifying with generally right wing party lines/views.
