Sid Dinerstein grumbled in a March 19 Newsmax column:
Are we witness to what I would also describe as, the “Tyler Robinson Wing of the Democratic Party.”
If you’ve forgotten who Tyler Robinson is, you may recall he is the alleged assassin of Charlie Kirk (Sept. 10. 2025).
Robinson was an expert shot. He etched “catch, Fascist” into the fatal bullet.
When asked why he did it, Robinson answered, “Because he (Charlie Kirk) is so full of hate.”
Charlie Kirk was many things, but hateful was not one of them.
Whether you agreed with Charlie or not, no rational person could describe him with the word “hate,” or its related descriptors.
Tyler Robinson learned that Charlie Kirk was “hateful” from secondary sources.
In fact, Kirk is on record as:
- describing transgender people as “groomers” and calling for transgender athletes to be physically confronted for the purported sin of trying to play sports as well as “Nuremberg-style” trials for doctors performing gender-affirming care.
- saying that Joe Biden is a “corrupt tyrant who should honestly be put in prison and/or given the death penalty for his crimes against America.”
- operating a website called Professor Watchlist, which listed college professors’ names and their pictures as part of an attempt to incite harassment against those who deviate from conservative groupthink on a host of issues.
- declaring that COVID vaccine mandates were “medical apartheid.”
Sounds pretty hateful to us. Nevertheless, Dinerstein insisted that only Democrats engage in violent rhetoric:
Too many high-profile Democrats use violent, provocative language to agitate and motivate the Tyler Robinson wing of their party.
Indeed, at the recent State of the Union speech, U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., shouted, “You have killed Americans! You are the murderer!”
No need to call for harm to the president, the Tyler Robinson Wing perhaps already carries this message, at least in thought.
No mention, of course, of Republicans who have engaged in violent rhetoric — including President Trump.
