Let's be clear.
Political violence has hit people on the left and the right.
It's been engaged in by some people on the political left and the political right.
Let's remember, when you pick up a gun and try and shoot someone, you are not sane and rational and a linear thinker.
And so sometimes your views can be characterized on the political right or the political left.
In just the last few months, you've seen Charlie Kirk, a conservative, and Speaker Hortman in Minnesota murdered.
People on the left and right.
In my home state, you've seen an assassination attempt on the President of the United States, on the right, and myself and my family on the political left.
We need to begin by saying that all leaders must condemn all political violence.
Not cherry pick which violence to condemn and which violence to accept.
To a future of peace.
There's no parsing.
Look, I stand by what I said.
I think the way in which the author described my emotion, frankly, was not accurate.
But the words are mine and I stand by them.
I think what was relayed to me by that author that the vice president had written about me just simply wasn't true.
And I think the vice president and I had very and continue to have very candid conversations.
And I think the way in which
It was articulated to me what was said was was certainly not accurate.
