Violence plagued all levels of American politics long before the

attempt on Trump’s life

BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) — Long before a
would-be assassin shot and wounded
former President Donald Trump, the fuse
of political violence had been burning
across America.
Members of Congress have been shot.
One lawmaker’s staffers in Virginia were
attacked with a baseball bat. In Louis-
ville, a bullet grazed the mayor’s sweat-
er after someone stormed into his cam-
paign office. Someone put a tracking
device on the Reno mayor’s car. Offi-
cials in South Carolina received death
threats over a solar panel plant. And
outside Buffalo, a man threw a dummy
pipe bomb through the window of a
county clerk candidate’s home while
her family slept — with a message read-
ing: “If you don’t drop out of this race,
the next pipe bomb will be real.”
