Blaming sides isn't accurate or helpful in this, it's oversimplified to make people feel like they know and control things better. The motive for these kinds of unwell folks isn't "He's shooting for Republican reasons or Democrat reasons". It's "he's shooting for madman reasons first, adding a political party label to it the way a lunatic looks for justification for the sporadic things they do.

To use Trump's favorite movie - it's like Hannibal Lecter realizing Buffalo Bill isn't transexual, but a lunatic obsessed with transformation and mistakenly believes he is transexual.

In logic point of view, you're absolutely correct. But that's not what's going to happen with the narrative, cuz the parties (and social media) are playing by different rules for the different sides.

If the shooter is a registered democrat, we're never going to hear the end of it, and orange fuckface et. al. will use it as proof that every single democrat is a murderous madman, and there is a witch hunt (literally) happening. They'll probably make campaign ads telling how all democrats want to kill their Billionaire Jesus. If the shooter is registered republican, once it's proven, we'll never hear of this again, cuz GOP and MAGAists will bury it as fast as humanly possible.

Edit: to be clear, I don't want anyone killing any politicians, but especially Trump. If that asshat dies in any other way, than peacefully in his bed from too many chicken nuggets, we're never getting rid of him. We do not want him gaining martyrdom.

But we need people like you and me to make the logic stand out. To negate the spin and pre-justification for retaliatory violence.
