“This rhetoric against President Trump, this narrative that he will be the next dictator, that he is the next Hitler coming, it has got to stop. Enough is enough,” Rep. Mike Waltz (R-Fla.) said in an interview with Fox News on Sunday. “And when you have this narrative coming from the left, from [the] media, from elected officials, even, that Trump has to be stopped by any means necessary, it shouldn’t surprise anyone that these people are being radicalized and taking action like this.”

My words: Nothing about AK-47 type rifles. No surprise there.
